More than typical

We are your typical high school.

One of Lakeside’s main goals is to educate our students, getting them ready for their next chapter in life. We like to think we do a pretty good job of doing that—whether students continue on to a 4-year university, 2-year tech school, the workforce, an apprenticeship or the military.

But we are not just your typical high school. We have a much more important task that sets us apart: encouraging and equipping our students’ faith in Jesus during their four years. On a daily basis our students get

• a better understanding of God’s Word and how it relates directly to their lives.

• Christian counseling and encouragement from teachers that focuses on the assurance that God is the one who brings us true peace.

• the opportunity to bond with friends and teachers who share a common faith.

• teachers as models of Christian living.

As our students face the typical challenges that come along with these high school years, we get to share these hope-filled words from God, “fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand” (Isaiah 41:10).

Pray for our teachers, pray for our students, pray for this ministry at Lakeside. It is your typical high school, and yet it’s anything but—and we like it that way.
