At Lafayette High School excellence is a way of life.

LHS Mission Statement
The mission of Lafayette High School is to develop the highest possible level of academic excellence and the individual strengths and talents of each student. A diverse curriculum allows each student to pursue his or her personal best in a variety of subjects and in a way that is the most relevant to his or her individual goals. Thus, students will be able to function successfully in the internationally complex society of tomorrow.

This development takes place in a safe and orderly environment where students and faculty show respect for one another and for views different from their own. A caring faculty and staff help every student to accept responsibility and achieve positive self-esteem. A myriad of activities offers opportunities for personal growth and good citizenship.

Instruction utilizes a range of learning styles and thinking strategies to actively involve students in the educational process.

Students, parents, teachers, administrators, and the community are accountable in appropriate ways for their contributions to achieve this mission.
