Lafayette School District

Lafayette is famous for its excellent public school system.  The Lafayette School District, educating students from kindergarten through eighth grade includes approximately 3,200 students in four elementary schools. The District offers a full range of services based on the needs of the students, yet the basic instructional day centers around the core subjects: reading, language arts, mathematics and science.

There is a strong music and arts program at all of our schools. Students continually score among the highest of all California students. Most will be college-bound after attending either Acalanes or Campolindo High Schools.

The overall success in the district is attributed to a strong, ongoing “Partnership in Education” relationship which exists among students, parents, faculty and the community. The District is proud to offer a number of special programs: reading specialists, resource specialists, library services, band, orchestra and chorus, English as a second language instruction and much, much more.
