Lakeshore Catholic High School

Lakeshore has a partnership with Cisco systems in the Cisco Systems Canada Networking Academy. "Part of the Networking Academy content focuses on teaching students how to design, build and maintain computer networks through two certification driven programs (Cisco Certified Networking Associate CCNA, and the Cisco Certified Networking Professional CCNP)." Students acquire IT industry skills such as (IT Essentials I & II, Panduit Network Infrastructure Essentials, Fundamentals of UNIX, and Fundamentals of Java Programming) that will all link to Industry recognized certifications (A+, Server+, Linux+, Sun Certified Java Programmer, and Panduit Authorized Installer). Globally the Cisco Systems Canada Networking Academy has more than 10,000 Academies in over 150 countries and with more than 1.5 million students enrolled.

Students at the school are required to wear uniform, which should conform to school-defined guidelines, including style and colour. Infractions result in disciplinary action. Lakeshore has been known to have a stricter uniform policy in comparison to other schools. For example, Lakeshore All dress shirts and cardigans are emblazoned with the "LCHS" logo. The uniform options consist of a short sleeved or long sleeved Oxford shirt, a sweater, sweatshirt or vest (to be worn from Thanksgiving to Easter), and grey dress pants or kilt. In recent years, Grade 12 students have had the option of wearing the "Grad Hoodie" instead of the sweater. The school also holds Alternate Dress Days, typically the last Wednesday of each month. Though in recent years this policy has become relaxed with the introduction of Rugby style shirts that are not required to be tucked in and therefore eliminating the number of Uniform Infractions. During alternate dress days students are permitted to wear acceptable clothing, though this dress must be of a respectable nature for a school community. These guidelines are set forth by school administrators.
