Mrs. Smith’s Snapchat…
Hello Lakeside Parents and Guardians,
Our 3rd and 4th graders completed their ILEARN MATH Assessments this week! We are so proud of their hard work and effort. ILEARN TESTING WILL CONTINUE NEXT WEEK AS STUDENTS WILL START THE ENGLISH/LANGUAGE ARTS PORTION. Please make sure students arrive at school on time every day so we can ensure they have time to complete these important assessments! Thank you for your support!
The week of May 6th is Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week. We have the best staff around, and I feel so very fortunate to work with each of them! Take some time to express your gratitude to our teachers and support staff for the great work they do every day!
Just a quick reminder. We are quickly approaching the end of another school year and many fun activities are still ahead. If you plan on chaperoning on a field trip, helping with Field Days, etc., please make sure your school-based background check is complete and up-to-date.
Have a great week and as always, I thank you for your continued support of Lakeside Elementary!

Attendance Matters, Facts Matters, Information Matters
1. Absenteeism and its ill effects start early. One in 10 kindergarten and first-grade students are chronically absent. Read more...
2. Poor attendance can influence whether children read proficiently by the end of third grade or be held back. Read more...
3. Research shows that missing 10 percent of the school, or about 18 days in most school districts, negatively affects a student’s academic performance. That’s just two days a month and that’s known as chronic absence. Read more...
4. When students improve their attendance rates, they improve their academic prospects and chances for graduating. Read more...

Lost and Found
We currently have many personal items in the Lost and Found bins located in the school clinic. Please check with your child and if they are missing any clothing, jackets, books, lunchboxes, or other personal items, please have them check our bins. Any item not claimed by the end of the year will be donated to a worthy charity.
Outside Recess
It’s that time of year when we need to remind student to make sure they have appropriate clothing for recess. The district policy states students will be going outside for recess if the temperature and the wind chill are above 20 degrees. We have extra coats, hats, and gloves for students in need. Please contact the front office if you need assistance.
Students must go outside unless we have a doctor statement.
HEALTHY CELEBRATIONS
While we love to celebrate, please remember that there is a “no birthday treats “ guideline. To access fun and helpful resources for healthy celebration ideas please visit the district wellness policy by clicking on this link. Also, note that no birthday invitations are allowed to be distributed at school. It is school policy.
