When I first was looking for schools I went to a couple different ones. I met with the princiopal of the school because there the ones who do the hiring and over see the school. I felt it was a great fit. In time I have come to find that this school does not know how to handle small things and make it into big things. Where you feel like you wanna sue the school for there unfair and improper actions. I also will be seeking a new school where my daughter can get a good education and I don't have to worry about if my daughter is going to be properly supervised. When I was on campes last I noticed a young lady getting bullyed and as well the staff did not act right away. The child was very upset about it and was in tears. I felt horrible about it and it broke my heart.
I can't imagine what a better school would be ... Lakeside Farms is FABULOUS & my kids love it there! They have the greatest teachers, staff, parents & most of all the Principal that knows every child's name ... his leadership is unlike any other!
My son has gone here,,my neice and nephew have attened and now my daughter is going to start soon,there is not another school i would rather send them to.Mr G is the best principal for this school he has made wonderful changes and this school has been recognized by the state on being a great school.I'm also proud of our community on how we really take part in doing our part on helping out in classrooms and taking an interest on our childrens education.
The school has been great until I enrolled my special needs child. It has been downhill since and I am removing my children in the year to come!!
The best school with the most caring genuine principal and staff!
The principal, Scott Goergens, is what makes this school special. He, himself, has received awards for bring the arts to life here at the school. It is amazing he knows every child's name in every class! I swear he knows all of us parents too! He is in touch. He works for long hours at end and leads by example. His teachers have to practically run to keep up with him. The leaders in the PTA follow suit. My son is in first grade and I was going to send him to Warren Walker but at the last minute decided to send him here. His kindergarden teacher was amazing and his first gread teacher is folowing suit. I am taking that money that I would have spent at a private school and giving him extra circular classes that he loves. If you want to be an involved parent they welcome you!
Last year, our Catholic school refused to accept my son for Kindergarden due to his September birthday. Instead of holding him back a year, I decided to send him to Lakeside Farms. It was the best decision I ever made for him. I requested a specific classroom and got it. Scott Goergens, the principal is phoenominal! He takes great pride in his school, knows all students quite well, and never tolerates bullying. My son repeatedly told me how much he liked Lakeside Farms School! His teacher was awesome! My son received some great awards, including the Anderson award. This school treated him quite well. He ended up getting accepted for 1st grade at OLPH, so I started him there. It was tough not to continue his attendance, but my daugher was already attending OLPA. I love this school and I miss it. I highly recommend it.
The school as a whole is absolutely Wonderful. Watching the children grow into happy individuals every year is fantastic. Thank You Lakeside Farms Staff and of Course the outstanding Principal.
Excellent School. Small intimate school and class sizes. Like getting a private education in a public school.
My son has received an excellent education at Lakeside Farms. The staff is fantastic. They care about the children and are always available to help. The principle is wonderfully involved and is very fair with everyone. The arts program is exceptional and makes the students very well rounded.
