College-Readiness
Duke University T.I.P.
Our successful college readiness curriculum includes participation in the Duke University Talent Identification Program where academically talented 7th graders get their first exposure to the ACT or SAT. In fact, many of our LFC students have received the TIP Louisiana State Recognition (ACT scores 20 to 36) for high scores in Math, Science, English and or Reading.
Annual College Day Project
Through our annual mandatory College Day Project, all students acquire the skills to identify accredited educational institutions that align with their interests, as well as understand the minimum GPA and ACT/SAT scores required for admission. Additionally, students gain valuable insights into applying for scholarships, grants, TOPS Scholar awards, and other financial aid through their research.
LFC Soaring Success Stories
LFC alumni are charting bright futures at colleges and universities across the country, from respected state schools to some of the most selective institutions in the nation. Whether attending Tulane, Howard, or Notre Dame, or stepping onto campuses like Yale, Columbia, Stanford, or Vanderbilt, our alumni reflect the power of preparation paired with high expectations. These successes show that when students are challenged early, equipped with the right tools, and encouraged to believe in their potential, doors open at every level of higher education. Each acceptance is a testament to what is possible when capability meets opportunity.
