There is a large difference in the academic abilities of LA students compared to my peers in middle school and high school.”

“The most significant strength of Lakeview is that children can grow up in a school where everyone knows them and encourages them.”

“There is a strong sense of community amongst peer families at Lakeview. Our family has been warmly welcomed, and we have felt supported in transitioning into this community.”

“Lakeview's most significant strength is the dedication of its faculty members to the students and to each other.”

“There is a standard of excellence expected academically, socially, and emotionally. This standard was set 50 years ago and has been carried forward generationally. This standard is unspoken, yet all members of the Lakeview family know the standard and expectations. Second to this is community. Lakeview provides a sense of community like no other.”
