As an alumni, LFA set me up for college and ultimately life. I went on to a college that did not have a lot of diversity (international students) and I truly miss that population when I was in college. All the teachers at LFA want you to learn. They work with you and give you confidence to succeed.

Awesome school with awesome people. The only thing I wish they would change is how they respond to controversy in the school.

Lake Forest Academy has allowed me to step out of my comfort and try new things. The community in the Academy is one of the most diverse I have seen and I am proud to be a part of it. My school has a priority on service and giving to others in need. We do fundraisers often and there is always ways to connect and help the world. That is my favorite attribute of my community and their willingness to give.

Outstanding school with excellent leadership, teaching, and results. The college placements this year were as strong as any school in the country. As a parent I am very pleased with everything LFA does.
