History

LCCS has an abundant history steeped in strong foundations that were built on the Word of God. Its values and heritage were established long ago as Lancaster Christian School (founded in 1954) and Living Word Academy (founded in 1981). These two cornerstone schools merged in 2010 to become Lancaster County Christian School. LCCS has continued this God-honoring, Christian education with more than 90 combined years of bountiful heritage. ^[3]

Athletics

LCCS provides a high-quality athletic program that provides student-athletes every opportunity to reach their potential in the sports arena and as individuals. We expect players to work to the limits of their ability to attain high skill levels, agility and mental understanding of the game, as well as maintain Godly character in every situation. They offer team sports in soccer, basketball, volleyball, track & field, baseball, and golf. ^[4] In 2015, the boy's varsity baseball team won the Class A State Championship, defeating Eisenhower (Russell, PA), 8-0. ^[5]
