School is great. They have good teachers and staff who care about their students. I like they do field trips and offer some extra-curricular activities. The neighborhood is safe as well. However, parking is limited, school infrastructure is getting old, and the PTSA is lacking talent. I encourage parents to help the school as much as they can by volunteering or contributing to PTSA. Parents need to be role models too. Please drive carefully, don't block the buses, park in designated spots, stop idling your cars, stop littering, and correct your children if they are doing something wrong while you are with them.
Lake Youngs is a diamond in the rough and is one of the top three best elementary schools in Kent School District. The staff definitely care about the students.
The community has very deep roots. Many parents and even grandparents of current students went there themselves.
There are sports opportunities (volleyball and track) plus chess club, choir and Boeing STEM engineering classes.
This is an amazing school!
We've been at Lake Youngs for 7 years and have two more to go. From the principal, teachers, to the office staff and parent volunteers, they are all top notch! The Music and Art round out an overall AMAZING environment to learn! We will be very sad to leave!
Good school, great teachers. Supportive office staff and the school counselor is knowledgeable and involved with all the kids.
