Lake Parsippany Elementary School is nestled between large oak and pine trees behind Kingston Road. The original building was built in 1949 as a 6 room schoolhouse. Two additions in 1955 and 1961 increased the size of the school to what it is today. This K-5 school has approximately 320 students and a full professional teaching staff of 40 classroom teachers and specialists, and over 35 support staff. Our school is known for a warm and caring atmosphere and a nurturing staff. We have a diverse student population that is supported by caring parents, a strong PTA and a resourceful community which is reflected in our school motto -  Who says penguins can't fly?

Schools are places that help students make sense of the world around them. Talking to students about issues like racism and protest can be difficult even in the best of times when we are actually with our students and not just looking at them through screens. Nonetheless, these are important conversations and important times. Should you wish, here are a few resources to assist in speaking with your children about these issues.
