History

Lakeland Christian School has a long and storied history dating back to its founding in 1954...from three small classrooms in downtown Lakeland...to its relocation to the current 27-acre location in the heart of Lakeland...through steady expansion over the years...culminating with the school's current $23 million expansion campaign.

LCS has experienced God's continuous blessing as it has expanded into Polk County's oldest, largest and most comprehensive non-public school. The vision of the school founders--to provide a Christian education, to impact the lives of our students and their families and to be a positive influence in our community--has remained the same for more than half a century.
