Education

students at graduation

All youth who have not yet completed a GED or high school diploma are required to attend school. MacLaren has a school on site to help students earn high school and college credits.

Lord High School has a similar structure to other public schools, including:
  • A principal, certified teachers, and other support staff.
  • A fully digital campus with computers and laptops for all students.
  • A five-period school day.
  • Individualized Education Plans (IEP)
If they have already earned their high school diploma, students can take college courses online, and sometimes in person at MacLaren. They also can participate in vocational work training programs.
