Athletics, Activities, and Field Trips

Within and beyond the school day, Lighthouse students have access to a variety of opportunities to extend their learning and explore new and emerging interests.

Students have access to all extracurriculars offered throughout Spring Lake Park Schools. This includes programming for all age levels through Community Education as well as athletics and activities at Westwood and Spring Lake Park High School. Transportation to Westwood for after school activities is provided.
