Community Resources

Each year, we invite local businesses, corporations, and foundations to serve as partners that benefit the school and the business community.

The Academy at the Lakes Community Partners Program provides area businesses with a way to support all aspects of the School’s events and programs, while also helping them connect and engage in meaningful ways with our community. Through digital and print media as well as signage at major events, our Community Partners show their support for Academy while also promoting their products and services to Academy families, friends, and beyond.


Participants in our Community Partners program are featured with links at the top of the Business Directory and receive other special recognition and benefits throughout the school year.

With sincere thanks to our Community Partners listed below.

Please click on individual logos to visit a partner website. 

We also offer an online Business Directory for our families to list their businesses. The Business Directory is a resource for our school community, raising awareness of local businesses that are affiliated with Academy families or otherwise support the school. Listing in the Business Directory is free.
