Greetings Lake Panther Families,
As you know, the holiday season is a time of giving. We are fortunate to live in a great community, outside our own school community, that gives back to others. This year is no exception. We have been contacted by several local organizations to reach out to others and give back.
The number of agencies asking for help became a little daunting, even for us. So we decided to “divide and conquer” so we can provide the best support to our community’s needs. In the meantime, we want to continue to carry on the school traditions that make us Lake Elementary.
Please take a moment to review the community events we are participating in (by grade level) as well as the upcoming school activities. Pay special attention to dates and deadlines.
