LGA is founded on the integration of rigorous secular and Judaic academics, with a strong, thoughtful social-emotional curriculum. This philosophy is based on:
- Solid academics inspiring intellectual curiosity coupled with astute critical thinking skills – We instill a love of learning derived from the pleasure and satisfaction that comes from active inquiry, exploration, growth, and mastery.
- Communication – Teachers work closely with one another and with families to assure the education of the whole child.
- Respect – Students are nurtured to become caring, contributing members of the community.
- Life-long learning – We promote strong study habits and organizational skills that serve students in many pursuits and capacities.
- Supporting and challenging students at their own levels – We recognize diverse learning needs and learning styles, and maintain a culture that respects the unique qualities of each and every child.
- Community – We seek opportunities to organize many activities across the grades, invite the larger community to join school activities, and create avenues for student and family involvement outside of school.
