Enriching Experiences at LPS

Our Academic Program

A Foundation of Self-Awareness, Character, and Lifelong Learning

At Lowcountry Prep, educational excellence is grounded in meaningful relationships and a holistic approach to student growth.
With an average 8:1 student-to-teacher ratio, our faculty are able to know each student deeply—how they learn, what inspires them, and how to support their journey toward personal and academic fulfillment.

Our classrooms are active, experiential spaces where students collaborate, ask questions, and engage with ideas that spark curiosity. Teachers provide just-right challenges and individualized support, encouraging students to persevere in the face of rigor and to think independently and critically.

Our Values

We believe that education is not only about informing the mind, but also about developing the heart. At every stage of the LPS experience—from Pre K through Grade 12—students are encouraged to live out the values we hold dear:
  • Faith rooted in hope and purpose
  • Self-Awareness through empathy and respect for others
  • Character built on discipline and authenticity
  • Service grounded in compassion and dedication
  • Lifelong Learning fueled by perseverance and curiosity
  • Leadership modeled through initiative and integrity
Our teachers serve not just as educators, but as mentors, advisors, and role models who nurture these qualities every day—in the classroom, on the playing field, in the art studio, and beyond.

This reflects the central role of our Judeo-Christian values and reminds us that everything we do is grounded in something greater than ourselves: a call to lead lives of meaning, purpose, and service.

Quotes from Our Seniors:

At LPS, we prepare students not just for the next grade level or academic milestone—but for a life of thoughtful leadership, enduring faith, and intentional impact.
The mission of Lowcountry Preparatory School is to empower students to achieve their full potential by growing in faith and character to lead with integrity and serve with compassion.
