Program Overview
Lakeview Academy believes children learn best when taught using a variety of methods. Consequently, instruction is differentiated to meet the needs of individual students. Grade-level teachers collaborate weekly to foster cooperation, creativity, and team-teaching opportunities to ensure the best learning environment. The program challenges all students to reach their potential in a supportive environment with clear expectations for behavior and performance. Our academic program provides a strong foundation and is committed to educating the whole person while encouraging a deep love for learning and preparing students to contribute to a changing and challenging world. Service opportunities to the community are an integrated part of their education.
Lakeview Academy's students will gain knowledge through inquiry-based learning, which includes, hands-on experience, reflection, and real life application of knowledge acquired in the classrooms. To ensure this, each Friday includes an "enhancement" experience where students apply what they have learned.
Parent Volunteers
Each family with children attending Lakeview is asked to provide 4 hours of service each month. This enables Lakeview to offer more services to students and free up teachers to focus on educating our children.
