Loveland Classical Schools
Loveland Classical Schools is a K-12 classical and Core Knowledge tuition-free charter school in Loveland, Colorado. Currently serving over 800 students across northern Colorado, LCS is chartered and accredited through the Thompson School District. The school defines a classical education by great works, great teaching, and great character and is widely known for its unique approach to teaching elementary students. Commonly referred to as departmentalization, elementary students directly benefit from mathematicians teaching mathematics, scientists teaching science, historians teaching history, and so on rather than one instructor per classroom teaching all core subjects. This method constantly brings new passion, expertise, and energy to each class.
Loveland Classical Schools is comprised of three schools:
LCS Elementary School
a K – 5th grade Core Knowledge and classical school
LCS Middle School
LCS High School
Loveland Classical Schools assists parents in developing young minds with virtuous character, critical thinking skills, and a passion for learning to become exceptional community stewards.
