Welcome to our school!
The public school system has been an important part of the Lake Mills, Scarville, and Joice communities from their beginnings. The Lake Mills Community School is one campus that houses the elementary, middle, and high school. The district prides itself in providing students with exciting learning opportunities that expand their connection to others locally and across the nation. Students at Lake Mills Community School benefit from small class sizes, one-to-one access to technology, and faculty who are focused on growth. We are so excited to offer our communities a school where our collective effort focuses on teaching and learning for all.

💼 Preparing for the Future! 🎓
On Tuesday, several of our Lake Mills 10th-12th grade students attended the Next Steps Transition/Life Skills & Career Exploration Fair at NIACC (North Iowa Area Community College).
Our students spent the day exploring a wide variety of post-high school opportunities, discovering available resources, and learning valuable job and workplace skills to help them prepare for life after graduation.
We are so proud of their hard work and focus on building their futures! A huge shout-out to Tiffany Kesler, LMHS Work Experience Coordinator, for her incredible help in making this experience possible for our students! 👏👏
