I had a very good experience through the years I have been a Lakeside student. There are several things to look forward to when you become a Lakeside student. The atmosphere in this school is very good and it makes the new kids feel at home when they come.

The teachers and staff car about your success. They know what they are talking about and make sure you understand the subject. The food is not very good, but student council is currently working to improve that. Sports are average and building.

This school needs to make major changes. Teachers, need to pay more attention to their student and what is going on in the classes. There's a lot of favoritism here, with teachers letting students who have prominent family backgrounds, to be given more privileges as well as letting them do whatever they want without any repercussions.
