Located in the heart of Silicon Valley, Los Altos Christian School (LACS) is a TK–8th grade school dedicated to nurturing the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. Since opening its doors in 1981 with 68 students, LACS has grown into a vibrant community known for its inclusive approach, strong academics, and commitment to student growth.
LACS meets students where they are and celebrates their individual strengths. Whether a child is ready for accelerated math or needs targeted learning support, our team ensures each student receives a personalized and meaningful education. Our Learning Assistance Program was established early in the school’s history to serve students of average to above-average intelligence with diagnosed learning differences—including dyslexia—who benefit from instruction tailored to how they learn best. Programs like the Wilson Reading System and multisensory teaching strategies empower all learners to thrive.
Academically, our students benefit from small class sizes, differentiated instruction, and enrichment programs that challenge and inspire. Our advanced math pathways support students who are ready to move beyond grade-level expectations, while our robust learning support ensures that every student gains confidence and skills to succeed.
But LACS is more than academics. It’s a place where students are truly known, supported, and encouraged to grow in character and compassion. From chapel and service projects to leadership opportunities and extracurriculars, LACS fosters a community of kindness, empathy, and Christian values. Students graduate not only prepared for high school but equipped to make a positive difference in their communities.
At Los Altos Christian School, we believe that when students are supported as individuals and challenged to grow, they become capable, confident, and compassionate young people—ready to navigate life with purpose and faith.
