This year marks Lakewood Park Christian School’s golden anniversary — 50 years of God’s faithfulness, provision, and purpose. We’ve seen that Good Grows Here, that we are Deeply Rooted in truth, and that we Cultivate curiosity, character, and Christ-centered community. Now, in our 50th year, we Celebrate the Harvest — rejoicing in the lives transformed, the growth nurtured, and the fruit of five decades of Christ-centered education.

“Good things come in threes.” The Latin phrase is omne trium perfectum, meaning, “everything that comes in threes is perfect.” Certainly that has been true for Lakewood Park’s Readers’ Choice experience. We began participating in these awards three years ago, and our community has voted, voted, voted to achieve the top spot for all nominated categories. And how does Dr. Burris feel about it? “We are grateful, grateful, grateful. As a smaller school, it makes this honor even more meaningful as we begin another record enrollment term.”
Christian education and academic rigor should not be mutually exclusive. We challenge our students to grow in both scholarship and faith.
We provide students with a tailored-fit education where they are seen in an environment that shares the values you are instilling in your home.
Parents are an integral part of our community. We always welcome their input, participation, and advocacy as we raise the next generation of Christian leaders together.
Students receive excellent, hands-on instruction in core classes, advanced curriculum, and the arts. We build on these competencies to advance them as complete learners.
We’re a member of IHSAA in ten varsity sports spanning 31 teams. We see sports as a means of ministry, serving the Lord, and developing leadership.
We are passionate about exploring each student’s special, God-given talents in music, art, and drama, while teaching our students to use their talents to glorify God.
Each week, our students worship together (by grade level) and engage in the Word of God during chapel.
We give our students numerous opportunities to experience life and cultures all over the world through our grade-level trips.
We’re located on a beautiful 180-acre lakeside campus featuring a new outdoor amphitheater just minutes north of Fort Wayne, IN.
Nothing matters more to us than helping your child find their next best steps and that means Christian education and academic rigor can’t be mutually exclusive.
At Lakewood Park, we are committed to providing students with a tailored-fit education where they are truly seen and supported in an environment that shares the values you are instilling in your home. This way each student graduates as a leader rooted in Christ who is fully equipped for their next steps in life.
