School Overview

Lakes Elementary sits in Lacey's steadily growing southeast side, where newer subdivisions blend with outdoor-friendly green spaces and easy access to the Chehalis Western Trail. The school performs solidly above the state midpoint across all subjects, with science being a particular strength, making it a good fit for families who want dependable academics without the pressure of a hyper-competitive environment. Lacey itself has a welcoming, suburban feel with a strong military-connected community presence thanks to nearby Joint Base Lewis-McChord, so families relocating to the area often find Lakes a comfortable and familiar landing spot.
