Our History

The school’s founders, Kampala Community Church under the leadership of Pastor James Teira, recognized the importance of grounding young people in a christian faith-based education system that would prepare them not only for academic success but also for their roles as future leaders and compassionate members of society.

Founded in 2012, Light Africa Secondary School (LASS) began as an O’ Level day school. Over the years, we have grown into a mixed day and boarding school, offering both O’ and A’ Level education. Located in Masanafu Kinoonya Zone along Sentema Road, Rubaga Division, LASS continues to provide an excellent academic environment that is rooted in Christian values.

Spiritual Development: At LASS, faith formation is at the core of our learners’ life. Weekly chapel services, Bible studies, and prayer sessions create a nurturing environment for learners to deepen their faith and grow closer to God.

Character Development: We emphasize virtues such as integrity, compassion, humility, and service. Through character education, we empower our learners to live out their faith in practical ways, becoming positive role models in their communities.
