Dear Lakeview Community,

We held our first fire drill today, a monthly practice to ensure our minds and bodies are prepared in the event of an actual emergency. When the alarms went off, students walked quietly and quickly to the blacktop staging area where teachers took roll through our Raptor Alert system which is used for accountability and reunification. In addition to monthly fire drills, we practice quarterly earthquake drills and a yearly lockdown drill varied in level. I encourage you to discuss today's drill with your child and ensure you have an evacuation plan for your home and family. 

We have just 3 days left in our PTA Membership Drive. Ms. Eliot’s class has joined Mrs. Sabio’s class as leaders in the friendly competition. Mrs. Olson is hot on their tails with Mrs. Vlasnik, Mrs. Nicholson and Mrs. Angeles tied for third. There is just a 3 member difference between all of these classes! Who is going to come out as the final winner and celebrate with an ice cream party? Parents, relatives and community members have until the end of day on Monday, September 30th to join. The winner will be announced next week.

And a thank you to Mrs. Nicholson, Mr. Mostajo, Mrs. Alberto, Mrs. Anderson, Mrs. Angeles, Ms. Eliot, Mrs. Lester, Mrs. Sabio, and Mrs. Lofdahl for joining the PTA, too! Go Lions!
