Update on the 8th grade trip to career centers
If your 8th grader did not get their Career Center Field Trip form turned in, please have them turn it in on Monday. Several people have asked me what will be happening if their student stays back at Lakeview that day. Please know that the majority of the 8th grade teachers will be accompanying the students to the career centers so if your student does not go, they will most likely be sitting in study hall a good portion of the day but will be able to attend their elective courses and lunch. Please let me know if you have any questions.

FROM OUR SCHOOL COUNSELORS
Check out these tips from our school counselors about how you can help support your child's learning at home:
Be Here - Being at school helps students improve their grades. If your child is regularly oversleeping or missing school, reach out to your school counselor to make an attendance plan to help. Be Organized - Sit down with your child and make a list of the assignments they have to complete each day. Set small goals for getting work done and check in with them about large projects. Be in Touch - Reach out to your child’s teachers to see what you can do to help support their learning at home. Be There - Make time to talk with your child about how they are feeling about school. School can be stressful and students might need help figuring out how to cope. Be prepared to listen first and brainstorm together. For more information check out this resource or reach out to your school counselor!
