The WVDE has informed all WV schools about a planned internet outage on Tuesday, Dec. 19, 2023. This will affect our phone lines as well as our internet.

Our fourth and fifth grade Christmas program is Thursday night at 7:00 at the Hurricane First Baptist Church on Main Street. Students need to arrive at 6:15. They should wear jeans and a plaid shirt or "country" attire to go with the theme (in case you missed that note home).
Tuesday, Dec. 12 is the fifth grade Pizza Hut day. If you eat at Pizza Hut, tell them it is for Lakeside and they will donate 15% of sales to the fifth grade for their end of year trip.
This is the last day to sell Pampered Chef for the fifth grade fundraiser for their end of year trip.
The fifth grade is taking orders for Pampered Chef as part of their fundraiser for their end of year trip. They need to raise about $5000. If you are inclined to help, Pampered Chef will donate a percentage of the sales to the trip.

Dear Families:
Your student will be bringing home state assessment results today if he/she took the WV General Summative Assessment: grades 3-8, the WV Alternate Student Assessment: grades 3-8, or the SAT School Day exam for grade 11 last spring. In addition, you and your student will also be receiving an email with a link to a video score report for WVGSA or WV SAT only. The video link is being sent to the student email account and the parent email on file with your student. Please have your student check the student email account to find the link. Simply copy the link into your web browser and use your student’s birthdate to open the video score report.
If you do not receive printed score reports OR if you have difficulty opening the video report, please contact the school for assistance.
This is a reminder that we have no school on Monday, September 4. The third, fourth and fifth grade Kids Run the Nation BREATHE afterschool club applications are due Tuesday, September 5th. Please help us fundraise for our playground by selling the Save Around Books. Grandparents' Day is Friday, September 8th at 8:30.
We are raising money for playground improvements with our first fundraiser. Save Around coupon books and order forms were sent home today. They are $25 each and there are books for multiple cities that can be purchased. We hope you will participate to help improve our playground. If you do not wish to participate, please return the book and order form tomorrow.
We are forming an afterschool club at Lakeside Elementary called Kids Run the Nation: BREATHE. We hope to start it on Thursday, Sept. 7. On Monday and Thursday kids will stay after school from 3-4:30 and work on life skills with an emphasis on mental and physical health. Activities will include working on running stamina in addition to learning about community service and other civic mindedness. This club will last into November and at the end, the kids will participate in a 5 K run. This is only for third, fourth and fifth graders. We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity as we are the only school in Putnam County doing this club in the fall. A flyer was sent home today. If you need the fee waived, please contact the school. (Please pardon the typo of our school name on the information sent home by the sponsor of the club.)
