Finding the right school should be a careful process of discovery.

La Lumiere is an exceptional place where students profit from individualized curriculum and attention while enjoying an inclusive, active community.

Acceptance is based on criteria including school records, an entrance exam, a personal recommendation as well as those of current math and English teachers, and an interview. Admissions decisions begin in February and proceed dependent on space availability. Entrance is normally at the beginning of each school year; however, entrance at other times is considered on an individual basis. Limited financial aid is available and awarded on the basis of need. La Lumiere School accepts qualified students without regard to race, creed, color, sex, or national origin.
