Leadership development is central to the La Lumiere experience. Through hands-on programs and service opportunities, students build the character, responsibility, and confidence to lead with integrity — skills that carry into college and beyond.

The Prefect Leadership Program

Our Prefect Program places students in real leadership roles across the school community. Selected for character, commitment, and the ability to inspire, prefects represent their peers, build school spirit, and serve as the link between students and administration.

Prefects receive practical leadership training in communication, teamwork, and public speaking, then put it to work: modeling positive behavior, fostering inclusivity, and holding themselves and others accountable. It’s leadership learned by doing.

Preparing Global Citizens

From residential life to the classroom to the playing field, La Lumiere students find opportunities to lead at every level — graduating ready to make an impact in their communities and the world.
