Lumen Christi Catholic High School believes that Catholic education is an expression of the mission entrusted by Jesus to the Church he founded.
Through education, the Church seeks to transform its members and all of society to a wholesome and holy life.
We at Lumen Christi believe that the intelligent person is one who has learned to choose wisely according to Gospel values, and thus lives in the Light of Christ.
The essence of the Catholic education presented at Lumen Christi brings about these character-enhancing qualities.
Our mission is to cultivate the whole person: spiritually, mentally, physically, socially, and psychologically.
Such a Catholic education helps each individual develop an understanding of his/her responsibilities to himself/herself, to his/her family, and to the larger community.
The test of our fulfillment of this mission is the person that is formed.
We are very proud of the many men and women who have been influenced by Lumen Christi and our system of education.
We know that the atmosphere we create can be a benefit for all of life.
