GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Lakeside is the best elementary school because the principal and teachers treat the children like their own. Great academic and social curriculum.

We moved here just over two years ago from England. Finding the right school wasa major drive for us and I haven't been disappointed. Both my sons have started here and the support from admin and teachers has been great. My youngest needed extra help with his speech problems and the team at Lakeside...

Decent school because of the kids. Some teachers are excellent. Some are awful. Seems they do not hire on merit. They promote from within no matter what. Special needs program awful. They have awful untrained aides. They're behind the national curve in integration. They basically want special needs...

An excellent school with a strong program for special needs children. There is also a good sense of community there where parents play a very active role in the school and their child's education.
