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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Lakeside is like a family. From the second I walk in the door, I know that every admin and teacher just want the best for me. They try their hardest to give us as many opportunities as possible with the limited resources we have. I love Lakeside.

My experience here has been some of the best years of my life. The teachers all know me by name and develop friendships and care about our lives. My coaches always make me feel supported and help me want to push myself harder. I have had the ability to make friends that care about me and want to push me forward and encourage me and care about me.
