About Us
Lideta Catholic Cathedral School (LCCS)
Lideta Catholic Cathedral School (LCCS) was started more than 60 years ago,with rudimental alphabet lessons given by Abba Gebremichael Mekonnenthe then parish priest of the Catholic Cathedral of Addis Ababa,. A few years later these single classroom lessons developed into a regular school with more than 800 students.In 1955, the Christian Brothers took the responsibility of running the school until 1974. It was later run by the Archdiocese. Since 1993 the school was upgraded from a junior school into a high school offering a good education to about 2,600 students annually. .
In the past 60 years the school not only served the public by providing quality education but has also shaped responsible and morally sound citizens for this country.
