Why Lake Country Academy?
Top Reasons Families Choose Us
Academics
LCA upholds an outstanding academic performance through the proven Direct Instruction teaching method. With students placed by ability in math and reading for grades K-5, these fundamental classes are smaller in size and students are given the instruction they need at their level.
Character Education
Character education is taught through our Core Virtue program. Each month we focus on a character trait and it is taught in the classroom, during library time, and altogether at monthly school assemblies.
Pre-K - 8th Grade Model
From Pre-K through 8th grade, students have the opportunity to remain at the same school throughout their entire primary and middle school education.
Self-Governing
LCA is a non-instrumentality public charter school with its own Board of Directors. This designation allows the school to make important decisions about the school independent of Sheboygan Area School District such as curriculum, staffing, school calendar, and uniform requirements.
School Culture
Beyond academics, LCA promotes a strong sense of community and school spirit. We host many enriching family events throughout the school year. Volunteer opportunities allow families to engage with and contribute to the school in a variety of ways. Families appreciate the student accountability, strong parent communication, and nurturing environment fostered by the LCA staff.
Clubs, Athletics, and Organizations
We offer many opportunities for students before and after school. Extracurricular activities include Friday morning Chess Club, Eco Club, Magic: The Gathering, and Robotics.
We have an interscholastic athletic program that includes girls’ and boys’ middle school basketball and girls’ volleyball teams.
The Boys and Girls Clubs of Sheboygan County provides after-school care for K-8th grade.
Uniforms
Parents tell us that our uniform policy makes their busy mornings easy and more enjoyable. The classic designs offered by Lands' End foster a sense of pride and community. Additionally, the ease of purchasing and consistent sizing makes outfitting children simple and convenient for busy parents.
