Danon Krupa, mom of a 2nd grade student at LCS
What I love most about Lebanon Christian School is the ability, as a parent, to be as involved as I would like to be in my child’s day. Examples are attending chapel, coming in for lunch, helping out with classroom parties, and attending Parent/Teacher Fellowship (PTF) meetings. As a parent you are encouraged to be an active participant in the whole education experience!

We are so thankful for the opportunity to send our children to LCS. Knowing that our kids are being taught through the lens of a biblical worldview, and that they have opportunities to process their faith alongside their learning, is an incredible gift. The LCS family is just that - a family! It's a refreshing mix of a family on a mission, as well as a focused, academically strong learning environment.

Jennifer Clarke- LCS Parent
We're incredibly grateful for the decision to enroll our children at Lebanon Christian School. Switching midway through the school year nearly two years ago, we were amazed at the warm welcome and care they received during the transition. Even with LCS's growth, we truly value the intimate, small-school atmosphere where our kids form lasting friendships with classmates over the years. It's more than just a school; it feels like being part of a close-knit extended family. Walking through the halls during pick-up fills me with joy as I see familiar faces of both teachers and kids. While the teachers excel in fostering academic achievement, what truly touches us is their commitment to nurturing our children's spiritual growth. One parent likened it to a 'greenhouse' rather than a 'Jesus bubble'—a safe space where our kids learn about God, biblical truths, and build their faith before stepping into the wider world. Surprisingly, having a preteen daughter in LCS Middle School has been a delight. Her growing independence, her delightful personality as a young lady growing in her faith, and her genuine enjoyment of school among friends make us grateful for this unique experience in today's world.

OUR LEARN BASED PROGRAM

Dear EdChoice Families:
We are quickly approaching the EdChoice application/renewal window for the 2024/25 school year. EdChoice opens the window
sometime in February. As we gear up for the 2024/25 EdChoice application/renewal process, please keep the following in mind:
EdChoice is a scholarship awarded through the State of Ohio. LCS has no control over the award or denial of the scholarship. Lebanon
Christian has no control over the length of time it takes the State to award. However, please note that the Renewal process generally goes
MUCH faster!
It is your responsibility to complete the Income Verification (if required) and YOU send the Income Verification with correct income
information to the State. If the State requests additional income verification, it is your responsibility to send additional documentation to
the State in a timely manner. Income Verification is not needed for Traditional unless you want to try for below 200% income status. If
you are on Expansion and renewing your Scholarship you do not need to verify income again UNLESS you want to try for a lower
income bracket than last year. Reminder, if you are at/below 200% on the income chart we accept the voucher as full payment of your
tuition. If over 200% on the income chart you will need to pay the difference between your voucher and our tuition. Tuition payments
will be paid through your FACTS account automatically and can be made in full, biannually or in monthly installments.
To renew, the school needs the Request for Renewal 24/25 form and proof of address. (Easiest is a current utility bill). We do not need the
birth certificate to renew. Hard copies only. We will no longer be accepting digital documents. Please provide hard copies to the school
office of all required documents. Please do not scan and email. (If your account is not current with the main office you are not
considered enrolled and your EdChoice Request will not be submitted to the State until your account is made current). Families also need
to be reenrolled at LCS, before I can submit your Edchoice to the state.
EdChoice can be used for tuition only. It does not cover your fees. For the 2024/25 school year we are allowing the SSS&P Fee and the
Safety Fee, if you choose, to be rolled into your tuition payment plan. Enrollment and Curriculum fees must be paid before the start of
school.
In the event you are not deemed Eligible for a scholarship by the first day of school, tuition payments will be withheld through your
FACTS account until your scholarship application is moved to Eligible. When your application is moved to Awarded/Accepted and we
have received a payment from EDChoice a refund will be issued for any overpayment of tuition.
If you have any questions regarding the EdChoice Application process, please let me know. I am here to help.

As many of you may know, on July 4th, 2023, Governor Mike DeWine signed House Bill 33, which brings significant changes to state education funding. As a result, the State EdChoice Expansion scholarship now includes ALL Ohio households with students in grades K-12. Additionally, the scholarship amounts have increased to an estimated $6,165 (from $5,500) for K-8 students and $8,407 (from $7,500) for 9-12 students. This means that EVERY Lebanon Christian School student residing in Ohio is eligible for some portion of this scholarship.

Please submit the information below to Lebanon Christian School as soon as possible:

  • Complete the EdChoice application.
  • A NEW copy of your student’s state-issued birth certificate.
  • Address verification (please provide to LCS one of the following forms below):
    1. All pages of a utility bill showing a matching billing and service address. The name and address on the bill must match the parent/guardian’s name and address on the EdChoice application. Cell phone bills will NOT be accepted.
    2. Mortgage statement/lease agreement, along with a form of business mail (e.g. credit card bill, bank statement, storage unit bill). The name and address on the statement must match the parent/guardian’s name and address on the EdChoice application.Lebanon Christian School is required to submit all paperwork received above directly to the state on your behalf.
  • Also, as part of the process, you must verify your income with the State of Ohio by submitting a form through the mail or preferably by creating an account on https://ohid.ohio.gov and uploading documentation supporting your household income. Current (2022 or 2023) income must be used. Verification Quick Guide

At LCS we believe it’s important for our students to give back.

On Fridays, our 5th graders work with students, help teachers, and do whatever is needed.
