71% Parent Participation! Thank you to this amazing community for stepping up and help us reach and go beyond our 70% participation goal for the LCAP Parent Survey. We very much appreciate you taking the time to provide the feedback, and your children will be rewarded with an extended recess! 

Equitable Internet Access. Lakeside is looking for 5-6 volunteer families to participate in a free (for 22-23 school year), pilot program for faster internet via Santa Clara COE and Cruzio Internet. The ideal candidate has a home with a clear view to the mountain ridge with Loma Prieta and Mt. Umunhum, identifiable by the telecom towers. If you are interested in participating contact us. 

School Updates

Field Trips are back at Lakeside. Your classroom teachers have started planning and are looking forward to your participation in facilitating the end of year field trips for each class. If you would like more information regarding dates, locations, times and how you can help, please contact your child's teacher.

May Day Success. Ms. Wingfield and Ms. Byrne coordinated the return of May Day with much support from parents and community members. Flowers were delivered to make crown wreaths for students from our neighbors Christine Groom, Karen Fishback, parents Kate Manning, Ilse Fletcher. Even our own Mr. Cody assisted in this process. Live music was performed by Ms. Sara Hitchcock Glover, Susan Ady, Laurie Gee and Lakeside Alum Tessa Begley. If you were not able to join us for May Day please view photos here.

Free Piano to a Good Home. Lakeside has an extra piano that we'd like to give to a good home for free. It's a small spinet in reasonably good condition but needs tuning. Help moving is available if necessary. Contact the school at (408) 354-2372.
