School Culture
Mindful Practices
Mindfulness is a powerful tool to help children and adults with a wide range of concerns from lack of focus to stress, anxiety, and overwhelmed feelings.
It is our intention at LPCS to provide lessons and access to strategies for all students everyday.
Core Values
Through sharing a set of core values, we seek to encourage a learning community where everyone feels physically and emotionally safe and can do their personal best every day.
PBIS
Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an approach which teaches and encourages students to make good choices through behavior education and recognition of efforts and achievements.
Restorative Practice
Restorative practices are used at LPCS as a way to allow students and staff to be involved in identifying and repairing harm in order to uphold a responsible and safe school community.
Student Leadership
Students are valued members of our community and participate in service and civic engagement through leadership groups including Student Council, National Junior Honor Society, Sources of Strength and Student Assistants.
After School Programs
LPCS offers a wide variety of after-school activities to support student interests and help to promote social-emotional and cultural growth.
Athletics
LPCS is proud to offer competitive athletic programs as a part of the Front Range Charter League. Students in sixth through eighth grades may compete in athletics such as boys and girls basketball, volleyball, cross country, and archery.
Junior High Enrichment Programming
Enrichment programming is a variety of optional, non-academic clubs, classes and organizations designed to uplift student voice, promote engagement by choice, provide options to meet the multiple needs of students and connect participation with interest, learning, and belonging rather than grades.
Parent Information Nights
With the support of our Community Wellness Coordinator we are pleased to have the opportunity to spend time with parents sharing information that supports wellness, learning, and strong social connections.
School Safety
School safety is of the utmost importance at our school. LPCS uses locking entrance and exit doors during school hours. The main office has a video camera monitoring the entrance. We support our staff with ongoing training in the areas of first aid, CPR, school safety and preventative protocols. To help ensure the safety of students, staff, and volunteers at LPCS, the Accountability Committee has purposely omitted details of our school’s safety and emergency plans.
