Abundant Life Christian School (ALCS) in Madison, Wisconsin is one of the largest non-sectarian private schools in the Madison area. ALCS was founded by Lake City Church (formerly Madison Gospel Tabernacle) in 1978. This 4K–12 school shares its 28-acre (110,000 m2) campus with Lake City Church[1] and Campus for Kids daycare.[2] While the three ministries are closely related, the students and staff represent over 60 churches and many communities in Madison and its suburbs. Abundant Life consolidated with High Point Christian School in 2012.[3]
