Pre-arranged absences for family trips will not be considered for nine weeks tests and semester exams except for extreme circumstances (refer to Absentee Policy). A student who misses a nine weeks test or semester exam for an acceptable reason such as personal illness, death in the family, or an emergency, must complete a make-up test in accordance with the school’s attendance policy. Students who are late for a nine weeks test or semester exam have only the remaining time to complete the exam unless there are extenuating circumstances. (The Lakeside School, Parent-Study Guide/Handbook, page 14).

•           Students who complete the service requirement prior to graduation are still required to do an additional 20 hours of service each year. For example, if a student has completed 80 service hours at the end of his/her junior year, they must still perform 20 hours of service during their senior year.

•           Students transferring to Lakeside after the freshman year will be required to complete 20 hours for each year they attend Lakeside.

•           To receive credit for service performed, the student must complete and turn in their service verification forms to the Dean of Students or Headmaster.

•           A list of suggested organizations to contact for community service will be available for students; however, alternative organizations may be used.

•           Students are encouraged to contact the school about doing their community service hours at Lakeside over the summer. Numerous projects need to be completed and help is always welcome.

•           Seniors must turn in required hours by May 1^st.

•           Forms must be submitted within two weeks of completing community service.

•           Community service hours will be checked every nine weeks and detention will be given to students who have not obtained a minimum of 5 hours per nine weeks.

Uniform Travel Shirt - K-12

The Uniform Committee, appointed by the Board of Trustees, has decided not to require additional grades to be in uniforms for the next school year (2017-2018).  They did, however, decide to require that all students, K-12^th purchase a travel shirt to be worn on special occasions and on school field trips.

This shirt is to be purchased through Land’s End.  The shirt is a long sleeve, button down Oxford shirt in French blue with the school crest on it.  The week of July 3^rd – July 10^th there will be no charge for the logo to be put on the shirt.  If you have any questions, please call the office.
