Please ensure that your child has brought with them on or before the first day:

At the conferences, you will have a chance to discuss and learn about how we use Remind, Twitter and our classroom Blog as forms of communication throughout the year.  If you have a smart phone, please bring it with you to the conferences.

We are very excited to see you all and can't wait to begin the new school year!

Thank You Lakewood School Volunteers

To all of our volunteers...we appreciate all that you do!  We hope you feel the love and were able to attend today's Volunteer Tea.  We really enjoyed our field trip to the zoo yesterday, and it wouldn't of been possible without your help and support! 

We can't thank you enough!!! 

We performed a song at the Vounteer Tea today to the tune of "We Will Rock You!" 
The lyrics are below and possibly a video to come:

Hey you're a star at Lakewood, helping in the school, working up a sweat all day,
You got a smile on your face, tying a shoe lace, going on field trips all over the place!
Singing, we wanna, we wanna, thank you!
We wanna, we wanna, thank you!

Hey you're brave at Lakewood, helping in the school, taking on the germs all day,
You got a smile on your face, fearless with grace, washing sticky hands all over the place!
We wanna, we wanna, thank you!
We wanna, we wanna, thank you!

Hey you're a gem at Lakewood, helping in the school, doing good deeds all day,
You got a smile on your face, at a marathon pace, working your magic all over the place!
We wanna, we wanna, thank you!
Sing it!
We wanna, we wanna, thank you!
Everybody!
We wanna, we wanna, thank you!
We wanna, we wanna, THANK YOU!

Let's Be Brave!!

Today at the monthly assembly, we told the audience about what it means to be brave. Room 15 and 14 decided to do a project about being BRAVE based on Sara Bareilles' song, BRAVE. Some of us said being respectful, being honest, taking care of the environment, being healthy, being happy, being yourself and standing up for what you believe in. We made a brave video. The video showed how brave we are every day. Doing the brave video was so much fun. Room 15 and 14 really enjoyed doing the presentation and exploring how being brave is really all about being yourself. Click here and enjoy our video. We hope we inspire you to be brave!
