Mr. Fien in the Dunk Tank 
Lakeside Lightning,

The World Is Yours: Turning Obstacles Into Opportunities 

We had another epic week at LMS. On Tuesday our Band and Art Show was very successful. This was a new opportunity for our Fine and Performing Arts Department and everyone who attended were very impressed. Students in the National Junior Honor Society had their trip to Dave and Busters on Wednesday! They did a great job of representing Lakeside.

On Thursday, Mrs. Abel hosted her annual Bike Trip to Cape May. The kids and teachers biked around Cape May and took in the local beaches. Also on Thursday we hosted our annual AVID Awards Banquet. We had over 200 families enjoy tasty food, inspiring speeches and an overall successful event.

he week culminated with the 8th grade Field Day. 8th grade students who earned the right to participate were treated to games, music, bouncy houses, Ice Cream Truck and a food truck. The students also were able to dunk their favorite teacher in the Dunk Tank. Everyone had a great time.

In addition, Lakeside, along with RM Bacon and the High School along with the rest of Cumberland County Schools participated in the largest health lesson ever. This monumental event will be put in the Guinness Book of World Records! Thank you to everyone who participated.

Thank you to the students and staff at Lakeside for everything they do to make our school something really special! We are grateful for everyone's contributions!

Ms. Bellucci's new Kiln 
Donors Choose funds another LMS project - Ms. Bellucci get s a new Kiln
A few weeks ago Ms. Bellucci set up a Donors Choose Project to try to get a new kiln for her classroom due to the increased interest in Ceramics at LMS.

Her project was fully funded! On September 2nd, the new, $1,700 Kiln will be delivered.

Honey, I Blew Up the Candy Bar - Mrs. Lopergolo's students take math to the next level
Just a few pictures from today’s scale factor lesson ‘Honey, I Blew Up the Candy Bar’.

The students measured the original candy bar, applied a given scale factor and calculated the new measurements as well as calculated increased calories, carbs, etc.



According to the students, the best part of the activity was eating their work!
