May Day. 5/2. Lakeside's May Day celebration is back! May Day is a long standing tradition here at Lakeside that has always been a community celebration with former parents and staff playing live music and the crowning of the May Queen. All parents and community members are welcome! Starting at 8:45am visitors will be guided to observation areas next to and around the track for the first part of the celebration and will be invited to observe the May Pole from the green benches. We ask that parents remain in the observation areas during the program starting at 9am. There will be many opportunities to take pictures.

Students have been learning and practicing new songs for the past two weeks. We're excited to have you join us in this celebration! 

Earth Day at Lakeside. In recognition of last week's Earth Day, Lakeside 5th graders Xuxu Kopcsak-Yeung and Madelyn Cameron created and delivered (photos here) 2 separate Earth Day presentations including many different activities and games to help students of all ages engage and learn more about protecting our planet. Xuxu and Madelyn differentiated their presentations for Tk-1st grade and 2nd-5th grade. We are so proud of our 5th graders for taking on this leadership role and for all the time they they dedicated to the creative process.
