This week, we celebrate the heart of our school—our incredible teachers and staff here at Lake! 🍎✨
Every day, they go above and beyond to support, inspire, and uplift our students. From early mornings to late afternoons, their dedication, patience, and passion make a lasting difference in so many lives. They create a safe, encouraging environment where students can learn, grow, and thrive—and that impact reaches far beyond the classroom.
We are so grateful for all that they do, often behind the scenes, to make our school community strong.
Lake Teachers and Staff - Thank you for your commitment, your kindness, and the countless ways you show up for our students each and every day. Lake is truly a special place because of YOU. 💙

This week at Lake!
As we begin CAASP Testing in grades 3 - 8 this week, it is important to remind your child to come to school with a positive mindset, grit, a good night's sleep, and a healthy breakfast. We believe in each of our students' abilities and can't wait for them to show off what they've learned!

Today, our kids get to travel to Plaza for an Author visit with Bruce Hale. Bruce Hale has performed extensively on stage and on television and is a popular speaker, teacher, and storyteller for both children and adults. From picture books to novels and graphic novels, Bruce has written and/or illustrated over fifty books for kids.
Today was Taco Tuesday in the cafeteria! The kids, and adults, were excited to try something new this month. We had chicken tacos with cilantro lime rice. It seemed like the new addition to the menu was a hit! Ask your child what they ate at school today, and what they thought of it. This may start a whole conversation about the importance of eating lunch and what we put in our bodies to fuel ourselves for the rest of the day.
