Principal's Welcome

Hello to the LVCP community and potential parents, students, and staff members, 
 
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the Livermore Valley Charter Prep (LVCP) webpage.  LVCP is an amazing, tuition-free, California Charter school that is truly unique.  We are smaller than the large public schools and yet we are still big enough to offer all the academics, athletics, and activities of the big schools.  As a charter school, LVCP offers the best of private and public school education rolled up into one! Here are a few of the wonderful things happening at LVCP. 
 
Our students and faculty know each other well and it is impossible to walk down the hallway and not speak with an adult.  Technology is part of our daily life as we are a completely digital school where each student carries a laptop instead of textbooks.  All of our students pursue a college prep curriculum and will graduate having fulfilled those requirements.  Well over half of our students play on our athletics teams each year and we pride ourselves on this high participation rate.  Even more of our students participate in orchestra, jazz, and drama.  If you are a student who loves the arts, take a walk down any hallway and you will see all the projects hanging on the walls.   Perhaps its debate and history that are your passions?  I am sure you will be interested in our Model United Nations class and competitive club.  If its science and math that you like, then you will really enjoy the fact that our faculty represents the professions of Molecular Biology, Aerospace, Mathematics, and Physics.  There is so much going on at LVCP that it is hard to write everything on this one page!
 
The truly defining piece of our culture however is that LVCP feels like home to both students, families, and faculty.  It is a community that is based on relationships, respect, and care for each other.  LVCP students get along well and work with each other every day.  As a community, we all expect each other to act with kindness and to be responsbile for each other.  This cultural strength is supported by our outstanding counseling department, our Student Advisories, Town Halls, amazing parents, and more. 
 
Our doors are open and we welcome you to visit, shadow a student for day, and meet with a counselor or myself.  Once you walk through our doorwarys, you will feel the difference!  LVCP is what we make it collectively, every moment of every day.   I hope that you will join us on this journey.
 
I look forward to meeting you.
