Grandparents Day Celebration
Grandparents Day is such a special event each year. Since we are not able to have our Grandparents on campus, we are bringing Grandparents Day to you virtually! Thanks to Tracy Herron for transforming the music program this year and capturing our students performing some of our favorite Grandparents Day songs.

The Scholastic Book Fair, another Grandparents Day tradition, is open for everyone to shop virtually. Click the link below to shop now!

We are excited to bring to you our first virtual Grandparents Day celebration.

Please share the video and link below with family members so all can enjoy the Lakehill students celebrating the beloved Grandparents Day.
Triangle Rules Poster Contest
Students in Lakehill's Lower School recently unveiled their artistic entries for the 14th annual Triangle Rules poster contest. 

Each fall, students participate in a contest to illustrate the three rules that form the Lower School Code of Behavior. Known as the Triangle Rules, they are based on respect, safety, and providing a welcoming environment to all. 

Winners were announced on November 16 during a special, virtual assembly. Head of Lower School John Trout presented the awards. 

This year's winners were:
Emma Jones, third grade - first place 
Sid Shanks, second grade - second place
Zoe Lavie, second grade - third place
Camille Rehm, first grade - fourth place (tie)
Lyra Novice, third grade - fourth place (tie)
Charlotte Gerstle, fourth grade - fourth place (tie) 
Allie Lerma, third grade - fifth place (tie)
Ella Konrad, third grade - fifth place (tie)
Link Esneault, third grade - fifth place (tie)
Gavin Salazar, fourth grade - fifth place (tie) 

Emma's winning poster, selected from a record-breaking 43 entries, will be displayed throughout the Lower School. 

Seventeen students were also recognized at the assembly with honorable mentions. Recipients were kindergartner Harry Wachsmann; first graders Anya Kumar, Brooklyn Booth, Carl Martinez, Hannah Dickstein, Mia Nemunaitis, Nick Shultz, and Rose Mitchell; second graders Drew Smedley and Margaret Harvey; third graders Aidan Andreason, Nathaniel Knickel, Serena Elsalameen, and Sutton Kulwicki; and fourth graders Becca Yttredahl, Jackson Booth, and Sebastian Ruiz. Photos of the winners and their posters can be found on SmugMug.

Art to Remember
Lakehill is participating in a creative fundraiser with Art to Remember that allows you to purchase keepsake products customized with your child’s art. 

There are over 50 products and many are less than $15. These make great gifts and a percentage of every purchase goes right back to our school.

Click on the link below and enter your child's name to see their artwork. Then, have fun shopping!

Remote Learners: You will be able to upload any of the artwork your child has done to participate!

Anyone can upload artwork from this year or previous years if you want to create your own keepsakes from other artwork than what I have selected. 

Artwork will be shipped directly to your home. Ms. Troxler will return original artwork in January.
