From Lakehill Preparatory School

A Small Place to do Big Things!

At Lakehill Preparatory School, we know that bigger is not always better. Lakehill is -- and always has been -- small by design.

Our school combines a strong, engaging academic program with a kind and inclusive community. A small student body offers a greater opportunity for each student to experience academic and leadership growth. Students develop a strong sense of belonging, and pride in their community, their school, and themselves.

Community spirit is encouraged in our small school environment. Strong relationships develop between home and school, and school leaders are far more involved with individual students than in a larger school setting. Lakehill staff pride themselves on knowing every child by name.

Lakehill builds an atmosphere of respect, accountability, collaboration, and mentoring between students and teachers, and provides the resources and learning opportunities that empower students to be architects of their own education.

    I have attended Lakehill for twelve years and both of my siblings are alumni. Lakehill is filled with an amazing faculty that are extremely dedicated to the students that attend Lakehill. With the small classes, students are offered one-on-one time with parents that allows students the proper amount of time to understand the material gone over in class. All students are given the opportunity to play a variety of sports and extracurriculars and are not restrained to one club or organizations. Students are encouraged to join clubs and take leadership roles. The faculty and administration are committed to bettering the lives of the students that attend Lakehill and preparing them for their future academic careers.

    Lakehill provides more than just a stellar education, but also a welcoming and encouraging community. Throughout my many years at Lakehill I have gained confidence in my writing, interaction with teachers, and overall ability to learn; all of which Lakehill provided through their many rigorous courses, both lecture and seminar, and the variety of teachers employed at Lakehill. Overall, I have no doubt that Lakehill's education and environment has prepared me immensely for college and whatever comes after.
    You couldn't pick a better school than Lakehill for a good environment and lots of opportunities. I've been at Lakehill since kindergarten, and am now starting my senior year here, and I will be leaving in the spring with nothing but good memories. The small number of students means that you can be in any club or team that you want, and the teachers have always been my greatest resource. I've never finished a class where I felt like I didn't understand the material I was supposed to learn. Every year of my time here have given me good memories, and in my 13 years, I've never even considered going to another school. Lakehill would be an amazing fit for anyone interested in a small school environment.
