Personal Electronic Device Guidelines

We recognize there are a wide range of reasons why students may feel they need personal devices at school. We also have experienced the negative impacts to social, emotional and academic development because personal devices are at school. Check out the guidelines here to review with your child(ren)

School Dress Code Policy

Lake Trail Community School is committed to providing students with learning environments that are safe and inclusive. We ask that students and staff wear clothing that allows them to participate in the intended activities. We also expect our staff and students to avoid wearing clothing that promotes drugs or alcohol, displays offensive language/images, or encourages discrimination.
