Fundraising
Although we have accomplised a great deal here at LLS, there is still much to be done if we are to continue to provide our students with superior educational opportunities. To continue our growth and development, and to help defray the cost of tuition, we need help from people who care about a quality Christian education. Contributions from people like you make a sizable difference. Would you like to help support LLS in its endeavor to continue providing our children with a quality education? Please call us at (337) 984-7860 and make a donation today! Many thanks to our supporters.
PTO Fundraising
In an effort to support the school's continued growth, the PTO sponsors fundraisers each year that allow us to provide valuable learning tools for our children and assist with school improvements.
As a small, private, Christian school, it is important that we receive the full support of the church, faculty and staff, and parents, as it benefits the quality of the education we provide.
2009-10 Fundraisers
We held a jambalaya sale and a Barnes and Noble book fair that provided funds to purchase the Star Reader Program and new books to improve our school library.
2008-09 Fundraisers
Our fall fundraisers included a raffle drawing and silent auction. This provided funds to purchase the Accelerated Reader Program, and to clean and add Microsoft Office to all of the computers in the school. The students also got involved in helping to raise funds by putting on their own talent show. These funds, along with the spring candy sale, helped us update some of our worn playground equipment.
Covered Walkway
In the spring of 2008, the PTO held a fundraising drive with the sole purpose of raising enough funds to add a covered walkway. Donations of $100 were made for a chance to win $5,000. The efforts of the parents and their families paid off. LLS raised $17,000 and added a beautiful covered walkway to keep faculty, students, and visitors dry during Louisiana's inclement weather.
