Welcome to Lakefield College School

Where leadership begins with relationships and every student is truly known.

At Lakefield College School, leadership begins with relationships. We believe that trust is the foundation of learning, and that teenagers thrive when they feel seen, heard, and supported by the people around them.

Led by Head of School and Foundation Anne-Marie Kee, our Leadership Team, Faculty and Staff work with purpose and heart. We are immersed in campus life — in Houses, classrooms, Harkness discussions, outdoor adventures, advisory circles, and community gatherings — because we believe leadership is achieved together. Every decision we make reflects a commitment to belonging, wellbeing, and the transformative power of experiential learning.

Set on 315 acres of lake, trails, and forest, Lakefield’s natural environment shapes how we lead. It calls our students to be present, confident, and connected to something bigger than themselves. And it calls us to steward this place with care, ensuring a strong future for the next generation of LCS students.

“Trust opens the door to authentic learning — giving students the courage to stretch themselves, step into real-world challenges, and discover they’re capable of more than they ever imagined.”
