Visiting Lakewood Catholic Academy

When choosing a school for your child, it is important to be well informed and to be comfortable with your choice. We urge you to compare schools and most importantly, to visit and ask questions. Prior to the beginning of the open enrollment period in February, parents are urged to familiarize themselves with Lakewood Catholic Academy so they are prepared to make a timely enrollment decision.  There are several opportunities to do so, including Open House events, personal tours, and shadowing opportunities for students entering grades three through eight.

Open House Opportunities

School Day Tours

We are pleased to provide personal tours of the school, during school hours, to prospective families.  These tours are conducted throughout the year, but are by appointment only. If you would like to arrange a personal tour, call Director of Marketing and Admissions Paul Nickels at 216.521.0559, extension 3028, or by email at pnickels@lakewoodcatholicacademy.com. A tour takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes, and there is the opportunity to ask additional questions afterwards.

Shadowing Opportunities

Shadowing opportunities can be arranged for students in grades three and above, for part or full day. We ask that shadowing days be limited to those students who are very serious about transferring to Lakewood Catholic Academy.  Contact Paul Nickels in the Admissions Office at 216.521.0559, extension 3028 for more details.

We encourage families interested in enrolling their children at Lakewood Catholic Academy to visit the campus! There are several opportunities to do so.
