Welcome to Lakenheath Middle School! We're a proud Department of Defense Dependents School located in the beautiful East Anglia region of England. We serve the wonderful DOD families stationed at Lakenheath, Mildenhall, and Feltwell Air Bases.
Our school is home to about 400 amazing students. The 6th graders enjoy their classes in the first wing, while the 7th graders are primarily in the second wing. Our 8th graders are located in the main wing, creating a vibrant and dynamic learning environment.
We follow a unique daily class schedule divided into Black Days and Gold Days. Each day includes a special Advisory period and a Seminar class at the end of Gold Days. Classes are 75 minutes long, with four blocks each day. On Wednesdays, we have a shortened schedule where students attend each class for 65 minutes and are released at 2:00 PM. Â Â Â
