Lakeridge High School

After a long search and touring handfuls of private and public schools, we chose to move to the district to attend Stafford. The impression the school, the leadership, the quality staff and tenure of the teachers made on us was also felt by my incoming kindergartener. He finally blossomed and thrived in the classroom, unlike any setting we had him in previously. We cannot say enough great things about our experience. Next year we will be sending our second child here as well to start kindergarten. The things that stand out about Stafford include the security (which was far superior to that of other schools we toured), the sense of community and family involvement, the academic record, how experienced and committed the teachers are and the immense resources available to push the gifted, pull up those behind, and work within an inclusive model. Just amazing. I have a unique situation as a business owner in the community and had long heard other parents speak very highly of Stafford and encouraged me to send my kids when they were old enough. I feel the same way about sharing with other parents.
