Lake County Office of Education

Headquartered at 1152 South Main St. in Lakeport, California, the Lake County Office of Education operates as an open, regular public school district serving the surrounding Clearlake metropolitan region. Nestled within a rural fringe community setting, the district manages two operational schools offering a complete educational continuum from kindergarten through 12th grade, as well as adult education programs. As an essential public administrative and educational entity within Northern California's school system, the district provides structured academic pathways designed to meet the evolving needs of its local communities while maintaining direct accessibility for families and researchers.

The district offers an exceptionally focused learning environment, catering to a primary enrollment of 40 students across its elementary, middle, and high school grade levels. This close-knit student body benefits from high levels of individual attention, underpinned by a specialized staff that includes over eight full-time equivalent teachers and more than five instructional aides—yielding a remarkably low student-to-teacher ratio of under five to one. Furthermore, a dedicated team of nearly 90 support staff members provides broad administrative oversight and specialized services, ensuring students receive comprehensive academic, social, and structural support throughout their educational journeys.
