Lakeview Lions Update - February 20, 2026

Dear Lakeview Community,

Your voice matters! We need parent input for the Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP)! Please provide your feedback, including areas of strength and areas of growth, to help our District leadership make informed decisions regarding funding allocation, supports, and resources for Lakeview and PYLUSD. Please click HERE to take the survey. The window has been extended to Friday, February 27th in hopes of receiving 80% participation rate. We currently have only 38% parent participation.

 

Dining with Lakeview at Chuck E Cheese is FRIDAY 2/27! Join family and friends for a Friday night of fun and a portion of your bill goes straight back to Lakeview! See the attached flyer and stop in at Chuck E Cheese anytime between 3-9pm.

 

SAVE the DATE: Family Literacy Night on March 19 from 5-7pm. Family Literacy Night will be a fun-filled evening where families come to celebrate the joy of reading! Students and their families will rotate through engaging literacy stations, meet local authors, and participate in book-inspired crafts and games. This interactive night is designed to spark a love of literacy while creating meaningful family memories through learning and play. Dinner will be available to purchase during the evening! See the attached flyer with hyperlinks to each of the authors. Prizes will be handed out!

 

The 2026 Science Fair has begun! Please see the attached flyer with information to guide this at-home project. In the past, we have had many entries across all grade levels and look forward to more! This year, we will align the due dates so the science projects are displayed during Open House. DUE March 31st.

**Calling Science Fair Judges!** If you work in a science-based profession or have a background in science, we’d love to have you as one of our Science Fair Judges! This is a heartwarming experience to listen to students share about their process and what they learned, mistakes included, while conducting their experiments. If you are interested or have questions, please reach out to YLlakeviewelementarypta@gmail.com

 

Kids Heart Challenge has one more week! The short week and rain delayed our team’s efforts of getting Thank you gifts to students at recess. There are more heart hero keychains and capes to be distributed next week! But don’t stop now! You still have 1 more week to work towards our goals! Click HERE to access our Lakeview page.

 

SAVE the DATE: 4th & 5th Grade Concert on March 11, 2026. Click HERE for the flyer.

 

SAVE the DATE: March 15 for the Shamrock ‘n Run 5K and 2K at Yorba Regional Park. Support the REACH Foundation by entering to join in on the fun. Your donations support PYLUSD scholarships and teacher grants. Flyer attached.
