Vision

LUMIN Schools are recognized in the city, state and across the country for the positive impact it has on students, families and communities.

LUMIN Schools students regularly achieve at or above grade level because of the value-added education they receive. LUMIN Schools teachers work with other specialists in integrated teams to improve student outcomes. Teachers, pastors, social workers and curriculum specialists work together with families to raise expectations for academic and life success. LUMIN Schools students believe and demonstrate they can be successful in high school, college and life because of the growth in faith and the academic success they experience in LUMIN Schools.

LUMIN Schools students are leaders in their schools, churches and neighborhoods. They share Christ with their families and friends.

Additional Culture Details

Message from the President

Thank you for your interest in learning more about LUMIN Schools. Leading this network of high-performing, Christ-centered schools is one of the greatest honors of my life. I have the privilege of being surrounded by caring and talented staff who lovingly inspire their students to be life-long learners.

If you learn nothing else about LUMIN Schools, please understand this, we know and believe in our hearts that each child is unique, yet EVERY child can succeed. It's our job to create a safe and nurturing environment where both children and teens find their voice, know their worth and understand the value of their education.

LUMIN Schools is a network, which means each campus has its own teachers and principals, but they also have the support of network staff who ensure we are offering the best curriculum, quality meal programs and support services like counseling, social work and special education. Using the power of our network, we can meet our scholars' needs beyond the academic to also include their social, emotional and spiritual needs.

Though we serve elementary and middle school students, we believe it is never too early to start preparing for college and a career. Establishing a college mindset starts in K4, and our focus on career exploration deepens with every grade.

When a scholar graduates from a LUMIN School, he/she will know the love of God and be both academically and socially prepared for a successful future.
