Learning Community Charter School

The William E. Simon Foundation announced has issued 
a second $10,000 Matching Challenge Grant to LCCS.

Thanks to support from people like you, we met our
 first $10,000 Matching Challenge this winter.

All new and increased donations will be matched from now until February 2019. 

 

Our goal is to increase the number of donors who give to the Annual Appeal. 


All donations are appreciated- and every amount counts!

We hope you would consider becoming a Sustaining Donor 
Your monthly donation of $20 or $40 provides
Learning Community Charter School with the consistent, reliable support 
we need to help make LCCS the best it can be. 

 

Every year, LCCS raises about $110,000 thanks to our families and other supporters, business and community partners, and granting agencies.
We do it with fundraisers large and small and donors who give at all levels.
All donations are tax deductible, and every penny counts!

With the help of supporters over the past five years we have: 

-- Added hundreds of ChromeBooks for student use
-- Upgraded the building's computer servers
-- Upgraded the auditorium's lighting and sound system i
-- Replaced 54 windows in classrooms and common areas 
-- Added security cameras and enhanced main entrance security systems 



But the need is greater than ever. Projects looming on the horizon include: 

-- Paying off emergency gutter cleaning and repair and boiler replacement 
-- More than 38 other windows need replacing and the cafeteria ceiling needs renovation 
-- Staff computers need updating and an additional 110 ChromeBooks will need to be replaced by 2020
