What do parents say about Lakeside?
The communication between parents and teachers/staff is amazing. Every Sunday we receive an email from our kid’s teacher outlining topics that will be reviewed that week, activities, and testing/quizzes. I always know what’s going on, every step of the way.
The genuine family environment at the school between teachers, students, and parents. Lakeside is more than academics... we do life together. Other schools can feel overwhelmingly big and real connections can be hard to find. We've found a 2nd family at Lakeside and as a mom, that makes my heart very happy!
