About the Advancement Office

Our team is dedicated to supporting the LCC mission by fostering relationships with our community, and raising funds to enhance the LCC experience for our students. Fundraising is a large part of the important work we do for the school and our community. In addition, providing our community (parents, alumni, faculty, staff and friends of LCC) with opportunities to network, mentor and volunteer to support the school, our students and each other, is at the heart of everything we do!

When a student finds something they're passionate about, we have to give them the opportunity to go as far as they can. That's the potential impact that a gift to the school can have. Christopher Shannon, Headmaster
