Lakewood School was built in 1928. The school closed in 1979 and the Lakewood Center for the Arts began leasing the building in 1980. The center made its final payment to purchase the building from the school district in 1987. In 2011, the school board approved the closure of three elementary schools as a cost-saving measure. Palisades Elementary was closed in 2012 and Bryant and Uplands Elementary Schools were closed in 2013. It was estimated that the closures would save the district about $2.3 million a year. After the plan was completed, the former Bryant Elementary building became a part of Lakeridge Junior High School and the district's junior high schools switched to sixth through eighth grade. Sixth grade was previously part of the elementary schools. In 2015, a majority of the former Palisades Elementary building was leased to the Lake Oswego Parks and Recreation Department.
