About LOLA:

LOLA is an outdoor environmental science classroom and nature area located behind the library. It encompasses a small riparian area that runs along McCommas Branch, a tributary leading to White Rock Lake. LOLA’s diverse ecosystems, including wetlands, bottomland forest, and prairie area, offer a unique learning environment.

• Since 2001, LWE students have received hands-on science instruction in LOLA.
  
• In 2022, we partnered with the Dallas Arboretum to create a custom, TEKS-aligned curriculum for each grade.
  
  
• Education, maintenance, and other programming is graciously funded by the Lakewood PTA and LECPTA.
  
  
• Improvements and new entrance to LOLA were provided by Dallas ISD.
  
  
• Thank you to the North Texas Master Naturalist for their continued commitment to the upkeep and improvement of LOLA.
