Lake Elementary School District

Panther families—our 7th/8th grade boys and girls basketball teams need coaches! As of today, we don’t have anyone to coach. If we can’t secure coaches by Monday, November 10, we won’t be able to offer a season.

If you’re interested, please contact the school office or Mr. Goings. We’ll provide support, schedules, and required clearances. There is a $1,250 stipend for each team.

Thank you for helping our students play! 🏀

Dear Families,

Here is November’s Parent Institute Newsletters! We invite you to click the links below to read the full issues.

This month’s newsletter offers strategies to help with your child's thinking, math, and writing skills. There is also an article highlighting the importance of sleep. At Lake, we believe it takes a strong partnership between school and home to help our students become the very best versions of themselves.

Thank you for all you do to encourage and support your child every day—we truly value your partnership!

The Honeybee Discovery Center is partnering with Keep California Beautiful, Glenn County Master Gardeners, and the City of Orland for a Community Action Day.

The goal is to gather at least 40 volunteers for this event.

This service project offers an excellent opportunity for community volunteers to contribute to increasing native pollinator plants in Orland's green spaces, which are vital for a healthy ecosystem. This is a family friendly event and we invite all our pollinator loving friends to join us!

This effort is made possible through partnerships with the City of Orland, Honeybee Discovery Center, Glenn County Master Gardeners, Keep California Beautiful, Keep America Beautiful, and the California Climate Action Corps, a program of California Volunteers.

The Panther Post for November is here! Be sure to read through it to keep up to date on the happenings at Lake.

Please be sure to stop by and check if your child has anything in the lost and found. It is filling up quickly with the cold mornings and warm afternoons! As a reminder, our lost and found gets donated at the breaks. Whatever is left at Thanksgiving break will get donated!

Let's Go Panthers!

The 2025-2026 Yearbook Cover Contest is here! Your child has plenty of time to submit a beautiful piece of art for this contest! The submissions are not due until January 30th. Please see the attached flier for details!
