Parent cooperation
We are all in this together, and as the proverb goes it takes a village to raise a child.
Reykjavík City schools make targeted efforts to consult with and increase parent involvement in school activities.
All schools in Reykjavík City have an active parent association.

Evaluation of school activities
The goal of evaluating and monitoring the quality of work is to provide information about school activities, their results and development.
Laugalækjarskóli school district
Reykjavík has many school districts, and the child's registered address determines their district school.
Your child gets priority in their district school. Nevertheless, all parents have the choice to apply to any school in the city for their children according to the rules on school districts, applications, and admission.
Here is information on which streets belong to Laugalækjarskóli's school district.
