Lakeview Elementary - About Our School

About Our School

Named for the area near Capitol Beach Lake, Lakeview School was a one-teacher school on West P Street until 1923 when the present building was constructed at 300 Capitol Beach Boulevard. Additions were added to the original building in 1963 and 1974. Currently, Lakeview is the academic home of approximately 300 kindergarten through fifth grade students from five different neighborhood areas.

Small class size and a dedicated staff make this learning environment ideal. Lakeview’s Community Learning Center offers a broad range of before and after school learning opportunities for students and along with the Lakeview Parent Teacher Organization sponsors activities that strengthen the partnership between the school and families.
