Light and Life Christian School is making an unprecedented move to lower tuition in an effort to relieve some of the stress many families are facing due to our current economy.
Our passion to offer a Christian Education for our community drives us to ensure that what we offer is affordable.
Since 1954, Light and Life Christian School, a ministry of Foothill Community Church of Azusa, has provided a quality preschool and elementary education to children from throughout the San Gabriel Valley.
Parents and children alike view LLCS as a safe haven for learning about the world and growing in the Christian faith.
Light and Life Christian School is a private school sponsored by Foothill Community Free Methodist Church and provides quality education for Azusa, Baldwin Park, Covina, Duarte, Glendora, Irwindale, La Verne, San Dimas, West Covina and other nearby Eastern San Gabriel Valley communities.
