Our focus on 21st Century Teaching and Learning skills assist us in meeting the various challenges of our military connected families.

Relationships are at the heart of everything we do here at Lejeune High School. As your Principal, I am dedicated to ensuring that every student knows that they are an integral part of our LHS family. Our commitment to relationships goes beyond the walls of our building; and we are especially proud of our community partnerships. I look forward to continuing our ongoing pledge to provide our students with experiences that promote their ability to be college and career ready.
