Lake Washington School District

The Lake Washington School District #414 or LWSD is a public school district in King County, Washington, in suburbs east of Seattle. Its headquarters is in Redmond. it is the second-largest school district in Washington. It serves the region to the east of Lake Washington, one of the wealthiest in the Puget Sound area, though some parts of the area are well under the poverty line.

In October 2021, the district had a student enrollment of 30,500.

Boundary
The district serves the vast majority of Redmond, almost all of Kirkland, the majority of Union Hill-Novelty Hill, north Sammamish, and parts of Bellevue, Cottage Lake, and Woodinville. The portion of Kenmore in the district is in the Saint Edward State Park.

History
The district was formed in 1944 by combining three smaller districts:
 * Redmond School District #208
 * Kirkland School District #224
 * Juanita School District #21

In 1944 the new district had seven schools; as of 2022, it has 56.

In August 2012, LWSD moved the freshman class into its four high schools, and converted the junior highs to middle schools (grades 6–8).

Traditional high schools
Formerly operated as senior high schools (grades 10–12), the four high schools added the freshman class in August 2012. All compete in the Kingco conference; all but Eastlake are Class 3A, while Eastlake is Class 4A.
