This Is How We Lakeview
March 2023 Edition: Volume 2
March updates!
Today is the end of quarter 3. All schedules are current in Infinite Campus. Students need to check Infinite Campus to see if their schedule or locations have changed for quarter 4. We will be checking eligibility for all Spring athletes early next week.
Scheduling for junior high electives closed today. If you need to make changes to schedule requests, they need to go through Mrs. Hanagan.

Spring Dance is May 20th!
Have you heard about the Spring Dance? It is a semi-formal dance for Lakeview students that will be held on May 20th. Spring Dance is a special time for our students and their behavior could influence their ability to be able to attend. Lakeview students have to earn the right to be able to attend the dance. Students who receive In-School Study or Out-of-School Suspension starting after Spring Break which is Monday, March 27th and leading up until the day of the dance will not be able to attend. If your student is following our Lakeview values and not engaging in any activities that could get them suspended, then they will be okay to attend. Any questions, please contact Mrs. Hanagan.
Notes on dress code - dress is semi-formal and follows our student dress code, i.e. appropriate length, shirts buttoned, no sagging pants, no undergarments showing, etc. Examples: nice pants (khakis or dress pants) and a shirt (polo or button down), dresses - think nice dress but not like for Prom (no midriff showing, no cut-outs, not backless, try to follow width of 2 fingers for straps). If you have questions or are out shopping, you can always send an email or Talking Points message which will send a notification to Mrs. Hanagan's phone so she should reply quickly.
This is a junior high dance in the cafeteria, this is not like Prom or Homecoming.

Level Up - Week 10
Teachers have been having data chats with their students to talk about their current iReady scores and predicted performance level for the upcoming Ohio State Tests (OSTs). Level 1 = Limited, Level 2 = Basic, Level 3 = Proficient, Level 4 = Accomplished, Level 5 = Advanced. We are also implementing some new interventions during class and E/I to help our students level up their performance on the state tests. Finally, we have brought back the iReady team challenge. Up until Spring Break, our teams will be completing for the iReady/ALEKS/Membean trophy by trying to get the highest average number of lessons passed per team. Encourage your student to work on their Personalized Learning Pathway and pass those lessons!
