Blog Compilations



As you know all of our teachers have their own blog sites. We realize that it is very time consuming to check individual blogs on a consistent basis. Mrs. Foellmer, our computer teacher, has developed a Blog Compilation link for each grade level.

On this site you will find a compilation of the blogs for that grade level. Included in this link are the two most recent entries for each teacher blog. Links and multimedia will not appear on this feed. To see the actual blog entry, click on the title of the post, which will take you to the actual blog. Please note that spacing, paragraphs etc may not be accurately displayed as was in the original post.

The Blog Compilation link is found on each grade level site below the test schedule and homework links. Hopefully you will find this helpful!

Early Dismissal / SIP Day



Tuesday, September 16th is our first early dismissal day. Lakeview students will be dismissed at 11:30 a.m. and bus service will run as usual. The is our first School Improvement Day of the year and many people wonder what happens when the students go home early on these days since the teachers remain at school. After lunch, teachers will be working on a variety of activities which will improve upon our school and student achievement. The Science Department, district wide will be working in a workshop to learn more about their new textbook series and get their questions answered. The Math Committee, at Lakeview, will be looking into how math fits with RtI. Various other teachers will be beginning curriculum adoptions, reviewing safety procedures and having discussions on how to implement vocabulary skills across the content areas. So, although the students get an afternoon off the teachers continue to work!
