Lightning Round goes over 100,000 visitors! |
It's All About Respect at LMS!
Congratulations to the Lakeside Lightning Round for passing the 100,000 visitor mark in less than 2 and half years! Thank you for your ongoing support!!!!
Can you believe that we are already through the first month of school for the 2018-19 school year? Time really is flying as we go throughout the learning process at Lakeside Middle School. Many students have completed their introductory assessments in their core classes so that teachers can understand their academic levels. These assessments are used in our Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) that the teachers engage a few times a week. In fact, the teachers will be getting additional training this week (while the students are off) on Wednesday, October 5, 2018.
Thank you to all of the parents and guardians who attended the Back to School Night. We tried to approach the BTSN differently this year in order to allow parents to attend multiple grade levels and classes that are offered A/B days. We would really appreciate your feedback so that is why developed a Google Form to hear what you thought. Please take a few minutes to share your opinions on the Back to School Night 2018.

Winner of the Week - Michael Bullock
I chose my student, Michael Bullock to be spotlighted for an activity he does outside of school. Michael, his mother, and other church members spend at least one Sunday a month feeding homeless people in our community. Not only does Michael participate, he puts forth 100% kindness. What I mean is this. Instead of just handing out food and moving on to the next person, Michael treats each person respectfully and spends time talking with them. This is something to be proud of, especially for a 6th grader. When asked why he does this, Michael said, "I feel good helping the homeless because they deserve a better life." Now that's a true example of being a kind and respectful community member! Great job, Michael!!!
