Dear Lakeview Community,
Our LEVEL UP Jogathon Fundraiser is underway! Our annual Jogathon is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and it’s so much more than just running. It’s an opportunity for our entire Lakeview community to come together, support our students, and make a meaningful difference in their school experience. Our goal is $50,000…and the highest donor gets to SLIME MRS. GIVEN!!!
Donations officially began October 1st. The funds raised through the Jogathon help provide extracurricular activities, special events, student experiences, school programs, and opportunities that make learning and being part of Lakeview even more exciting and memorable.
Every lap, every step, and every contribution brings us one step closer to reaching our goals and creating more opportunities for our students. Whether you’re running, cheering from the sidelines, sharing our fundraiser, or making a donation, every bit of support helps us Level Up together.
We are incredibly grateful for our amazing Lakeview families and community. Thank you for helping us make our school a place where our students can learn, grow, have fun, and make memories that last a lifetime.
Let’s Level Up, Lakeview! Go Lions!
