Lighthouse Christian School is a private Christian school in Twin Falls, Idaho

Lighthouse Christian Middle/High School is fully accredited through the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI), Northwest Association of Accredited Schools (NAAS), and the State of Idaho. It is a discipleship Christian school that focuses on the spiritual, academic, social, and physical development of its students.

LCS opened its doors in 1995 with only 12 students. Since then it has grown to two campuses with a total enrollment of over 300 students. The middle/high school campus is in downtown Twin Falls. The elementary campus is about 3 miles away in quiet Kimberly, Idaho.

In 2006, Lighthouse was welcomed as a full member into the Idaho High School Activities Association (IHSAA) in the 1A division. This qualified the school for the very first time to participate in state-wide competitions. In May, 2007, the school participated in its first ever state competition when it sent one member of the golf team to the state golf championships in Orofino, Idaho. One week later, 12 members of the school's track and field program went to Boise, Idaho, to compete in the state finals. They received several gold medals, and the boys' team brought home the third place trophy.

Lighthouse Christian Fellowship and School recently purchased the former Anderson Lumber Building in Twin Falls, and the process has begun towards moving everyone onto one campus. There are plans for several buildings to house the church, pre-school, elementary school, middle school and high school. There will be a gymnasium as well as football fields and playgrounds.
