Happy Friday, Lakewood Families!
We had a great time celebrating the Halloween holiday. I loved seeing all of the costumes in our parade. I also was excited to visit all of our Halloween parties throughout the school. It is always very cool to see the wonderful stations and activities that our families create and plan for our students. You may not have realized this, but our staff focused on honoring the memory of our beloved teacher, Kelly Stachura during our Halloween celebrations. We dressed up in costumes that reflected the things that Kelly loved, such as Care Bears, Christmas, The 80’s, Gardening, The Price is Right, etc. Mrs. Stachura’s mom also participated in the Kindergarten Halloween party, and she sat in Kelly’s rocking chair outside while watching our parade. Yesterday was a great day to honor Kelly Stachura’s memory.
Conferences begin next week. Our first day of conferences will be on Wednesday, November 6th from 4:30- 8:00 PM. Conferences are probably the best way to partner with your child’s teacher in their academic success. If you have not signed-up, please contact your child’s teacher to do so. Our second day of conferences will be on Thursday, November 14th from 4:30-8:00 PM. I hope to see you on one of these dates.
We would like to invite any Lakewood friends or family who are veterans or currently serving in the military to celebrate with us. Celebration Day Details: Tuesday, November 12th - Veterans and Service members attending should arrive at Lakewood Elementary School at 9:30 am to prepare for the indoor parade, which will begin at 9:45 am.
