What is a commonwealth educational community?

Lighthouse Commonwealth of Iron County follows the Thomas Jefferson Education philosophy and is a family-centered educational community, united not only by geography, but by a shared vision and mission which springs from a shared philosophy. Families meet weekly in Cedar City for classes. Our mentors follow the philosophy of A Thomas Jefferson Education by Oliver DeMille. We embrace complementary educational materials and philosophies, including the Scholar Projects of Leadership Education Mentoring Institute.

Mission

We are a commonwealth united to support one another in inspiring future leaders who will stand for liberty, righteous principles, and Judeo-Christian values. We strive for excellence in scholarly pursuits through individual study and mentoring with love, integrity, and vision.

Vision

Our commonwealth provides a supportive and encouraging community for parents and their children. We aim to inspire parents and scholars to gain the vision, abilities, and skills necessary to pursue and fulfill their personal missions. We honor each individual’s stewardship over his or her education and seek to support the family as the center of learning. In order to achieve this, we stand upon these foundational pillars: Faith: We believe in God and each person’s accountability to Him for his or her actions. Integrity: We seek and act upon true principles. Liberty: We affirm that the blessing of freedom is maintained through self-reliance and virtue. Scholarship: We foster a lifelong love of learning, focusing on the history of Western civilization and classical literature. Work: We each contribute to the success of the commonwealth.
