Lake View

My son is in the first grade, his second year here, and I've noticed a pattern of terrible communication in this school. He was diagnosed with ADHD, but after repeated requests for special ed services, I have either been ignored or refused a consultation. The guidance counselor is only in the school once a week, so I just have to hope my son doesn't need him the other four days. His regular teacher has been out since the second day of school, and the principal was only able to provide a stable long-term substitute at the end of November. In the meantime, there were two different long-term substitutes (one was moved to another class without explanation, the other couldn't stay past a certain date) and countless day-to-day substitutes. Communication with the parents on the status of a teacher in the classroom has been spotty at best. But, it is a safe school, and I completely trust my child being there. That is the only reason I gave it two stars.

this is school is very safe and my child's teacher Mrs. Stowe is awesome. i volunteer in her class once a week and i see firsthand the effort that is put into educating and challenging the students to learn. i only wish the school had more extracurricular activities available to the students.

My 1st grader is doing very well in her second year at Lake View. The content is very appropriate. The school is safe. Mrs O'Donuhue is an awesome addition to the school! One of the few schools that carry on with our traditions as well, which is very important for the children(e.ghoul parade).

I have a 2nd grader at Lake View and so far I love everything about Lake View. Mrs. Bondar is a great principal, Mrs. Stowe, Mrs Vincequere and Mrs. Earles have been great teachers for my child.

The teachers do not teach the students well. I do not recommend this school at all. Not enough info on events and not enough instructions for students homework.

Very caring and committed staff. Parent involvement is one of the many aspects of lake view that make it such a great place to send my child.
