PACE stands for “Parents Active in Cooperative Education.”

We are a choice educational enrichment program offered at Lockwood Elementary through Northshore School District (NSD) for grades 1-5. 

PACE builds a learning environment that includes active family participation to support each student’s learning style and developmental rate; innovative teaching techniques; and a unique partnership of teachers, families, and students.  
We value respect, compassion, and responsibility in building our community of lifelong learners.
The PACE program serves students of all learning capabilities, follows the NSD curriculum, and also provides an enriched educational experience through additional field trips, events, and speakers.

As a PACE Community, we lead with an attitude of GRATITUDE! It takes passion, commitment, work from all the members, and appreciation of one another to make this program a success. Many graduate from this program with several long-term friends.
