Academics

Typical Day

Daily Schedule

The typical weekday at Lakefield College School consists of academics, athletics, cocurricular and community activities. The day begins for the whole school – Grade 9 through 12 students and staff – at Chapel. Morning announcements are shared and special calendar dates are celebrated. This is a valuable time of day for the school family to build values and spirit, and to broaden their understanding of global issues and advocacy.

After Chapel, everyone gets down to work with four periods of class (two on Wednesday and two on Saturday to accommodate the athletics and cocurricular schedule). Students have the chance to meet individually with teachers, advisors and tutors for extra help during Grove Time, after school and during study time in the evenings. After fourth period, arts rehearsals, cocurricular programs and athletics activities also fill the time before dinner.
