Principal’s Message
November 2017
The school costume parade was great. The weather was wonderful and we all enjoyed being outside. It is always nice to have so many visitors come to the school events. We appreciate all the involvement that parents are able to show for this fun activity. Having parent support and involvement is so important for a school to be successful. We appreciated the chance to meet during parent conference as well. Hopefully you feel good about the communication from school and have seen your student progress academically. I hope everyone appreciates the weekly newsletter and recognizes the amount of effort it takes to gather the information, compile it, and put it together so we can send the newsletter out each week. We have started to post regularly on the Lakeview Facebook page. Check it out and “friend” us. Communicating is important to us and we attempt to keep everyone informed through several formats. It is a constant challenge.
I look forward to our first “Arts Night” on Monday the 13th. There are so many talented young people here at Lakeview. This will give the opportunity to showcase some of that talent.
We appreciate the efforts to get your students here and on time. It does make a difference. Habits and patterns established in elementary school stay with students through their entire school experience. Please continue to emphasize the importance of punctuality and attendance. These next few weeks we have a great opportunity to reinforce the value of caring and sharing. I appreciate the PTA for sponsoring the food drive. This is a wonderful opportunity to share with those that need a helping hand. We are grateful to the PTA for working with us to provide support so the students have every opportunity to learn and succeed. We truly do have much to be thankful for.

Family Arts Night
There will be activities, awards, prizes, and hundreds of artworks on display. Our students have been exploring the theme of “We Rise by Lifting Others.” Every student has created a piece of art that ‘lifts’ others in some way.
