This will ensure that only the most capable and talented students are learning beside your child. Together this combined intellectual level will push all students to even greater heights and prepare students for the greatest Colleges/universities in the world.

Following the April 1, 2018 admissions decisions, should there continue to be any seats available at any grade level, students may be tested. If the child meets the admissions criteria he or she will be accepted. Students will be invited to join L.S.S in the order of the date on which they were tested (earliest testing date equals first invited to join). Parents will have one week to submit the 20% deposit and complete the enrollment process. If they fail to do so within one week, the admissions offer will be withdrawn and the seat offered to a qualified student with the next earliest admissions testing date.
