Why We're Unique

In the state of Florida, only 5% of all teachers are rated as “highly effective” At Lake Lucina, more than 85 percent of Lake Lucina’s teachers are rated as “highly effective!” While all our teachers are effective, enthusiastic, skilled, and dedicated this “highly effective” designation, earned by so many of our teachers through rigorous examination, proves our school has some of the best educators in Florida.

We’re also unique because we practice culturally responsible teaching, incorporating individual cultural references in our classrooms and curriculum, making for an inclusive, secure, and caring school environment for your child. At Lake Lucina, we know education is not a cookie-cutter process. Your child will get the individual attention he or she needs to learn, grow, and belong.
