Mr. Lee Downey - Principal

LCHS Family, I am very excited to begin the 2016-17 school year in our beautiful LCHS building. With high expectations, accountability, caring, and hard work this school year is bound to be the greatest for LCHS. We want to continue to be a leader amongst all high schools in the commonwealth. Our focus this year continues to be BUILDING FAMILY the LC WAY! It is very important to me and the LCHS Staff to foster an environment which will build a family atmosphere for all students with everything we do. Louisa County is dear to my heart as my wife Jennifer (teacher with LCPS) and I are raising our family here. We have three beautiful children (Alexis, Connor, and Jocelyn), Alexis is entering 7^th grade at LCMS, Connor is in 5^th grade at Thomas Jefferson Elementary School, and Jocelyn is in her last year of preschool. Let’s work TOGETHER to achieve the high expectations we set for ourselves. Please feel free to contact me at any time here at LCHS as I have an open door policy, or you can call me at (540)894-5436. Thank you so much and Game On, Lions!

“Building Family”, the LC WAY!

Greetings! I am the Assistant Principal for Instruction at Louisa County High School. This is my 14th year at LCHS, and my 7th year as an administrator.

Mrs. Felecia Christian- Assistant Principal

Greetings! I am Felecia Christian. This is my ninth year as an educator. I graduated for Bluefield College with a B.S. in Behavioral Science. In addition, I have a M.A. in Special Education and I am currently All But Dissertation (ABD) for a Doctorate in Education with a specialization in Curriculum and Instruction, both from Liberty University.

Special education has been my passion and I look forward to working with the staff, parents and most importantly, our students with disabilities. Students with disabilities are near and dear to my heart. I am also excited to be a part of our seniors last year of school on this level. I know that they are being prepared for success as they enter into the workforce, military or attend college. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Mr. Shaun-Michael Woody - Assistant Principal

Greetings! I would like to take the opportunity to welcome new students, parents, teachers and community members to LCHS. I am blessed to be a part of the LCHS family and given the opportunity in continuing the tradition of excellence that has been established in our school system. As Assistant Principal, I will work with the faculty, parents and each student to ensure that students are achieving at their highest potential. The goal is to ensure that each student becomes a productive member of the learning community, while finding a passion for the educational process to become a life-long learner. Through collaborative relationship building amongst the school and the community, students will be given a variety of opportunities to succeed. Successful schools are those that set high expectations for all involved. In addition, those schools who prove successful believe that everyone has a responsibility in ensuring the school is striving towards its vision.

Mr. Robert Morgan - Assistant Principal

Greetings Lion Nation!! I work directly with 9^th graders and the Career and Technical Education Department. This is an awesome school nestled in a great community, of which I am proud to be a part of both.

I am a native of Clarke County Virginia a rural area that is similar to Louisa. I am a graduate of Clarke County High School after which I attended Virginia State University on a Football Scholarship and received a Bachelor’s Degree in Agriculture. I then joined the United States Army and was stationed in Germany, and successfully completed my enlistment and a tour in Iraq. In 2007 my family and I moved to Louisa after accepting an Agriculture teaching position at Louisa County Middle School. While working as an Agriculture teacher I completed my Masters in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Phoenix. I am currently working on my Education Specalized Degree in Leadership through Liberty University.

It is an awesome feeling to work in a school in which everyone works together to find ways to continually enhance the educational opportunities we offer our students. Our goal is to make sure that each and every student who enters this campus is given every opportunity to become a successful member of our community and a life-long learner. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. I look forward to working with you this year and hopefully many more.
