Lake Forest Elementary Charter School operates as an active, independent charter district located at 11110 Lake Forest Blvd in New Orleans, Louisiana. Situated within the New Orleans-Metairie metropolitan area, this single-school district provides an urban educational environment designed for students in kindergarten through eighth grade. Serving as its own local education agency for federal programs, the open public charter offers a structured elementary and middle school experience, establishing a continuous academic foundation across nine grade levels without pre-kindergarten or high school divisions.

During the 2024–2025 academic year, the district educates a total student body of 691 children, maintaining an even balance of 347 male and 344 female students. The student population is predominantly composed of 570 Black students, along with Asian (82), multiracial (18), Hispanic (17), and White (4) learners. To support academic achievement and school operations, the district employs a robust team of approximately 195 full-time equivalent staff members. This includes 92 dedicated teachers, 10 instructional aides, and over 93 support personnel, ensuring low student-to-teacher ratios and comprehensive educational services across all grade levels.
