Dear Lakeview Families,
This week brought loads of fun with the holiday parties, performances, pajamas and pancakes! Thank you to all our parent volunteers for supporting our teachers and your children. I loved getting to partake in some of the crafting fun and playing games with the kids, but most of all, it was so heartwarming to see how many parents joined in on the fun.
An additional thank you to our fabulous PTA for hosting a Staff Holiday Luncheon on Monday - our bellies were full and our spirits were bright :) We love our parent community!
May you find moments of peace, celebration and togetherness this holiday season. I am thankful for each Lakeview Lion, and to each of our parents and guardians, for entrusting us with your most prized possession. It is an honor to work in education and get to serve our students at Lakeview.
With all the extra gatherings and holidays, we anticipate an ongoing rise of illnesses. Please notify the office if your child will be absent by following the guidelines below:
Need to Report an Absence? Please let the Office Staff know of your child’s absence by 10am using one of the following methods:
Option 1: Fill out the Absence Reporting Google Form, located on our school website.
