Points of Pride
Kindergarteners Biking Through the Halls
Kindergarteners at Lakeview Elementary have been zipping up and down the halls as part of a unit in their physical education classes where they learn how to ride a bicycle! The two-part biking unit began in December and will pick back up again in the spring when they can continue building their skills outside in warmer weather. The balance bikes and curriculum came through donations and a grant program from All Kids Bike. Watch the video to see how the students are practicing their balancing and how last year’s fifth graders helped set the bikes up for this year’s kindergarteners.

Triple A Award Nominees
Congratulations to Lakeville South High School seniors, Whitley Ronn and Ethan Starfield. They have been nominated for the MSHSL Triple ‘A’ Award. The three A’s stand for academics, arts and athletics. The award honors high school seniors in Minnesota who have a 3.0 or higher GPA and who participate in athletics and fine arts activities. Four statewide Triple ‘A’ Award winners will be chosen and announced in March.

‘Year in Review’ Community Print Newsletter
In case you missed it, the District's 'Year in Review' print newsletter hit mailboxes at the end of December. This newsletter includes district stats from the 2022 calendar year, important community feedback and a look at the future of Lakeville Area Schools. 

See the online version of our 'Year in Review' here.
Here Comes the Bus
With the recent winter weather and road conditions, we want to remind you of our school bus tracking system - Here Comes the Bus. Our bus company, Schmitty and Sons, ensures buses run on time, but sometimes road conditions put things out of their control and delays happen. 

Stay up-to-date with your student’s bus location through the Here Comes the Bus app. This app is useful throughout the whole school year, but can be especially helpful during winter weather. With Here Comes the Bus, parents/guardians can see where their student’s bus is in real time and get notified when the bus is near their stop. 

If you do not already have the Here Comes the Bus app, you can download the app now for Android or Apple devices. 

Learn more about the app at isd194.org/HereComesTheBus.
