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.

I had a fairly good experience attending Lakeside because I was really involved in sports and some clubs. I also made connections with a couple of teachers which made it more memorable. I would like for the academics to be more demanding because some teachers did not put in much interest or work into it. Some classes were not challenging enough and did not teach much to the students due to the teachers a well. The administration was not the nicest for the most part. I like how Lakeside always felt like home because it was very welcoming and it has people filled with enthusiasm. The campus is very pretty and it is easy to get around. The school did lack a bit of spirit such as in sports games and rallies. It was also a bit unorganized in the sense of events.
