School Notes
- Lakehill Preparatory School opened in 1971. What started as a school inside a church is now a K-12 college prep school with two campuses. Located in the heart of Lakewood, Lakehill`s Main Campus is conveniently located within easy reach of all areas of Dallas. The six-acre Main Campus houses classrooms for over 400 students in Kindergarten through Grade 12, as well as a gymnasium, a cafeteria, two libraries, numerous science and computer labs, and the Charles J. Wyly, Jr. Auditorium. In 2017, Lakehill Preparatory School added 16,000 square feet to the Main Campus and renovated an additional 8,000 square feet of space. This vital effort produced new lab spaces for science, writing, and computer science, as well as an art studio. It also provided new classrooms, administrative offices, and meeting and event rooms. A dramatic 5,000-square-foot inner courtyard offers outdoor classroom and performance space.Located on Ferguson Road,
- Lakehill`s second campus is the seventeen-acre Roger L. Perry campus. It is a perfect location to engage children in nature. With its graceful walkways, sweeping trees, existing creek, and pristine athletic fields, the property feels majestic and park-like, yet welcoming and calming. After breaking ground early in December 2008, crews began work on Lakehill`s highly anticipated Alice and Erle Nye Family Environmental Science Center.
- The Alice and Erle Nye Family Environmental Science Center offers laboratories, classrooms, and meeting space. With over 40 acres of untouched land to explore, Lakehill students have the opportunity to experience nature in a pristine, untouched environment. The science curriculum for each grade is thematic and concepts introduced will be built upon from one year to the next. An AP Environmental Science course is available to Upper School students.
- The 6500 square foot building is simply state-of-the-art use of the environment and energy. But the greatest thing about the facility is not the building, but the idea that we can get kids, like me, out in nature, learning about and experiencing the natural environment, and that this is a legacy that will always be here for Lakehill children. Lakehill`s athletic facilities include the Warriors Football and Soccer Stadium, Basketball and Volleyball Gym, Baseball Field, Softball Field, Tennis Courts, and Field House. Athletic events, off-season training, and extracurricular activities are held at Lakehill`s Main Campus as well as the Warrior Athletic Complex on the Roger L. Perry Campus. A two-story press box offers space for concessions, equipment storage, observation area, announcer`s booth, and live broadcasts of games.The football and soccer field seats 1200 fans and has the highest quality natural grass turf available. It is a family-friendly environment with a beautiful natural setting and there is a special grilling area that offers food and fellowship at all sporting events.The baseball and softball fields were designed and built by W.O. Adams, who also built fields for the Texas Rangers and the Houston Astros. Each field has a top-of-the-line scoreboard and is regulation size consistent with professional and collegiate standards. These fields are highly sought after, we even hosted the New York Yankees for a regional baseball tryout.The tennis courts were built in 2006 with four UTSA-approved, professional grade courts. And last, our state of the art field house has spacious locker rooms, indoor batting cages used by softball and baseball teams, and a weight room.Lakehill Preparatory School provides Dallas K-12 students the limitless opportunities they need to excel, and the rich support they need to keep forging ahead.
