Why does Lakeside have the Lakeside Fund?
Tuition alone does not cover the cost of a Lakeside student’s education. The Lakeside Fund is Lakeside’s major annual fundraising effort. It runs from Sept. 1 through June 30 of each year and provides 7% of the school’s $37 million operating budget. Lakeside Fund dollars are unrestricted and have a direct impact on every corner of Lakeside’s campuses.
