Principal's Message
Our students are tired. Our staff is tired. This time of year is always difficult as we look ahead to winter break, a time to recharge, enjoy family, and sleep in! But this year seems especially difficult. So, let's try to have some fun!!! We are excited about our Theme Days leading up to break. This is one way for us to bring some fun to our days. We love when students participate! The calendar of our days is below.
Coming soon - please watch for a SignUpGenius from HSO for the annual Cookie Exchange. Also, I'd like to give a public HOWL out of thanks to our HSO. They are wonderfully generous. Just recently, they provided gift bags to every staff member. Each bag contained some goodies, hand sanitizer, Expo markers, and much more! Please consider getting involved with our HSO. Attend meetings, volunteer, chair a committee, run for the Board... there are so many options with various time commitments. We'd love to have your input and involvement!

School-Wide Second Step Focus
All grade levels will work on the following:
- Nurturing Gratitude from the inside out
- Random Acts of Kindness
- Define gratitude/grateful
- What/Who am I grateful for?
- What emotions are associated with gratitude?
- Acts of Kindness are often returned with kindness.
Professor HOWL's tips
Box Tops
BOX TOPS MAKES IT EASY TO EARN FOR LAKEWOOD CREEK ELEMEMTARY
All you need is your phone! Download the Box Tops app, shop as you normally would, then use the app to scan your store receipt within 14 days of purchase. Box Tops has not forgotten about delivery or pickup. You can still submit any digital receipt containing participating products and earn Box Tops for your school. The app will identify Box Tops products on your receipt and automatically credit your school’s earnings online. Twice a year, Lakewood Creek will receive a check and can use that cash to buy whatever it needs! Help us help our teachers and students. Remember to scan or submit your receipts every time you shop!
Masks must be worn at all times in school buildings.

Attendance and Office Information
School Office Hours 8:15-4:00
Consistent attendance at school is a great factor in student achievement and success. If your child is unable to come to school due to illness or unavoidable appointments, please contact the Lakewood Creek office by 9:15am. Please leave a message on the Attendance Line with a phone number stating the child’s name, teacher, and reason for absence. If we do not receive a message or note from you, we will need to call to locate the child. We are sorry if this causes any inconvenience for you. If students are absent during the day, they cannot attend after school or evening activities (this includes music programs and after school clubs).
