Lakeside Union Elementary School District (LUESD) is
one of the most unique school districts in the whole of the GoldenState. Located
in the quaint town of Hanford, the residents enjoy a semi-rural life while
still only a 15 to 45 minute drive to the conveniences of the bigger cities of
Visalia and Fresno. LUESD faces the challenge of educating many children who
come to the school lacking many of the fundamental skills and background that
are so necessary to help promote early success.
The District has two schools, Gardenside Elementary
(kindergarten through grade three) and LakesideSchool (grades
four through eight) located about 5 miles apart. Currently there is an interim
superintendent in place while the board of trustees searches for a full-time
superintindent.
