Our Lady of the Lake Catholic School is a Pre-K through 8th grade parish school in Lake Oswego, accredited by the Western Catholic Education Association and recognized as the Best Private School in Lake Oswego and West Linn in both 2024 and 2025. The school's mission centers on developing students' God-given potential through a challenging academic curriculum grounded in Catholic faith and values: weekly Mass, prayer, and service to others are woven throughout the school day and year.

The Elementary program (K–5) offers a differentiated curriculum with specialist instruction across a broad range of subjects including accelerated math (beginning in grade 5 by teacher concurrence and STAR scores), science, language arts, writing lab, art, music, PE, and Spanish. Each classroom is built around the school's four Schoolwide Learning Expectations: Catholic Values, Self-Awareness, Responsible Citizenship, and Lifelong Learning.

Middle School (6–8) is fully departmentalized, with dedicated subject teachers and 1:1 Chromebook access across all academic areas. Sixth graders receive focused training in executive functioning and responsible technology use alongside a social-emotional learning curriculum. Seventh graders rotate through Health, Art, and Music each trimester and partner with first graders on reading and creative projects. Eighth graders complete a minimum of 10 hours of community service as the foundation of a capstone project, and all 8th graders take a Leadership class emphasizing public speaking, school service, and cooperation. OLL is oriented toward individual attention and close teacher-student relationships. Graduates are well-prepared for local Catholic college-preparatory high school programs.

Tuition: $14,825 (2026-2027)
