School Reviews
5 4/2/2008
Lakeside is an amazing elementary school. A real close community. A private country school, only a public school. They will accept transfers from other school districts on a limited basis.
There aren't a lot in the way of extracurricular activities, but the kids get a solid education.
If you are looking to move into this district, be aware that there is no local education provided for 6th through 8th grades at this time.
