INVESTING OPPORTUNITY

BUILDING OUR FUTURE TOGETHER

Lighthouse School is more than just a place of learning, it’s also a vibrant, resilient community where every scholar and family is welcomed and supported. Our students bring a wealth of backgrounds and experiences.

​​​​​​

97%

come from families facing economic barriers

64%

identify as Latino

28%

identify as as African American

55%

are multilingual learners

10%

are scholars with disabilities

Together, we celebrate the unique strengths that each individual brings to our community.

 

​​​​​Our commitment to providing an excellent, inclusive education means that Lighthouse School is now stretched to its maximum capacity. As of Fall 2024, we have 150 children on our wait-list which is a clear sign of the trust families place in our school, and the urgent need for us to grow.​

We’re excited to announce a 7,000-square-foot expansion, slated for completion by Summer 2025. This project will allow us to:

  • Add two new classrooms, supporting 20 students each,

  • Create a dedicated classroom for artistic education,

  • Build a teacher and staff lounge and learning center,

  • Establish a multipurpose community room for 100+ guests to gather, celebrate, and learn together.

Currently, classrooms are filled to capacity, staff work in makeshift office spaces, and our lunchroom doubles as an art and community room. This expansion will provide the space our scholars, families, and educators need to thrive.

​

We’ve raised just over 50% of our $2 million goal to fully fund this project. Your support, at any level and in any form, will help us open our doors wider to more children and families, and strengthen the foundation for generations to come.

​

Every gift makes a difference. Your generosity will create opportunities, nurture talents, and help build a school where every child can shine.
