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.

Happy National School Nurse Day to the incredible nurse who keeps our Bulldogs healthy, safe, and ready to learn!
From managing complex health needs and providing emergency care to offering a reassuring smile and a Band-Aid, our school nurse is on the front lines every day. She is a vital link between health and learning, ensuring every student has the support they need to succeed.
To our LMCS nurse, Joan Krull: Thank you for your expertise, your compassion, and your dedication to our school family. We don't know what we'd do without you! 💜💛

🌸 Spreading Springtime Smiles! 🌸
The 3rd graders in Mrs. Kingston’s class have been busy little bees! 🐝 They spent a day last week crafting and filling over 100 May baskets to brighten up our community.
These handmade treats are headed to some very special people:
🍎 Our hardworking school staff
🎒 Our adorable TK pals
💌 Our wonderful Mills Harbour pen pals
There’s nothing like a delivery of flowers and treats to celebrate the start of May! We are so proud of these students for putting so much heart into their work and practicing the true spirit of giving.
Way to go, Kingston’s class!🌷✨
