My Promise to You:
"If your child isn't gifted on the first day of school, she or he will be on graduation day."
Learn Well
Learning well prepares your child to investigate a lifetime of new adventures. To learn well is more than only studying what your child is interested in studying.
In order to be a well-rounded person, one needs to be educated in foreign languages, as well as science, technology, engineering art and mathematics, a S.T.E.a.M. discipline/approach.
Students at the Academy, from the age of 4 through grade 12, study five foreign languages: Chinese, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
Parents who desire a better life for their child/ren need to embrace a well-rounded/rock-solid education. The Academy's amazing and extraordinary curriculum is a curriculum that parents can trust!
At Lahr-Well Christian Academy, your child will not sit on the edges and observe without participating. Our teachers draw the entire class into discussions and activities.
Lead Well
In order to be well-educated, one also needs to build a core value of positive morals and ethics.
Integrity is key to all.
At Lahr-Well Christian Academy, a student learns to enhance wisdom through discernment.
Leadership is not sitting in an ivory tower. Leadership cannot be "Do as I say, not as I do." Leadership is attempting the "impossible," leading by example.
At Lahr-Well Christian Academy, students are taught to bring their intrinsic value to the table as leaders.
More than simply profess, one should learn to believe that "A good name [earned by honorable behavior, godly wisdom, moral courage, and personal integrity] is more desirable than great riches; And favor (to be esteemed) is better than silver and gold."
Proverbs 22:1, Amplified Bible

What Other Parents Are Saying...
"Dr. Lahr-Well and her approach to education is extremely refreshing! I was very concerned with my son not enjoying school or learning at all. He has made a complete turn-around since attending Lahr-Well Academy. He enjoys going to school every day. Not only does he not mind going to school he has developed a desire to learn beyond what is taught in the classroom.
Enrolling my son at Lahr-Well Academy is one of the best decisions I have ever made."
"Our six year-old daughter has been attending Lahr-Well Academy for a little over a year and she really enjoys the school atmosphere and curriculum. The school has fostered a caring environment where she is not artificially limited by her age, background or the educational level of her peers. She has significantly advanced in her academics having received individualized attention in reading and mathematics, which has allowed her to test well beyond her age grade. Lahr-Well Academy provides the children with a rich experience beyond anything offered in the local schools."
"Matthew is returning next year without hesitation. Our family needs Lahr-Well. Since Matthew started school here his confidence level has dramatically increased and his anxiety level has decreased. I believe he is learning the way he was always intended to."
