Mission Statement: Labette Community College provides quality learning opportunities in a supportive environment for success in a changing world. 

 

 Labette Community College is a two year degree accredited college located in southeast Kansas. On April 4, 1923, Parsons voters approved a two-year Junior College and Labette Community College was founded as Parsons Junior College that on the top floor of the old high school building at 26th and Main. The College program moved to the new Parsons Senior High-Junior College building (now Parsons Middle School) in 1926. The College relocated to its present campus in the former East Junior High School building at 14th and Broadway in 1963. In  June of 1965, voters approved the creation of the Labette Junior College District. The Parsons Board of Education operated the College on an interim basis, but it became a separate entity when the Labette Community Junior College Board of Trustees was elected in the spring of 1966. In 1978, the College was renamed Labette Community College.

 
The College has evolved from a city college primarily serving those students who wished to transfer to a four-year institution to a comprehensive community college offering transfer degrees, professional/technical degrees and certificates, continuing education, customized training for business and industry, lifelong learning opportunities, and a variety of programs and services for Southeast Kansas and the four-state region.
Labette Community College is a member of the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) and the Kansas Association of Community College Trustees (KACCT),Kansas Board of Regents (KBOR) and the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools accredit Labette Community College. The LCC Bi-level Nursing Program is accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission, Inc. The Radiography Department is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) and the Respiratory Therapy Department is accredited by the Committee on Accreditation for Respiratory Care (COARC).
