In Partnership for Quality Education
In addition
to a strong basic educational core curriculum that correlates well
with the State's Essential Academic Learning Requirements, Lakewood
schools offer a variety of unique educational programs that provide
for the specific needs of ALL students. The District strives to
ensure that the best educational environment is provided for each
student to reach his/her potential academically, physically, socially,
and emotionally. Some of these programs
are:
Co-Curricular
activities are also a valued tradition in the district. A wide variety
of activities are offered to students in grades 7-12. At the high
school level, as a member of the North Cascade Conference, activities
include baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer,
softball, tennis, track, volleyball, and wrestling. In addition
to athletics, high school students are able to participate in such
diverse activities as drama, band, choir, Chess Club, Honor Society, Hi-Q, FFA and Business Leaders of America.
The District
is proud of its continued efforts to improve and expand our computer
labs. All grade levels include computer learning as an integral
part of the curriculum. We are also proud of our dedicated parent
groups. The PTA, PTSA, Lakewood Education Foundation, and Booster
Club all participate actively in fund raising, making it possible
to acquire additional learning tools and resources for all grade
levels.
