LOST & FOUND | UNIFORM DONATIONS
Lost & Found
Our Lost & Found is located in the school cafeteria and is cleared out periodically throughout the year. The best way to avoid losing items for good is to label everything with your child's name and homeroom. Labeled items can often be returned directly to your child's classroom, while unlabeled items end up in Lost & Found.
Uniform Donations
Outgrown it? Pass it on! Gently used Lakewood uniforms can be donated throughout the year by dropping them off at Uniform Resale Chair Mimi Ellenberg’s home. Her contact information is below. Reach out for the drop-off address.
Donated uniforms are sold periodically at school events, giving them a second life and families an affordable way to stock up. Reduce. Reuse. Rewear!

TIPS & TRICKS
What to Label
Everything!
- Outerwear - jackets, hoodies, coats, sweaters
- Daily Gear - backpack, lunchboxes, water bottles
- Extras - hats, helmets, books
What to Use
We recommend waterproof, washable labels from:
- Mabel's Labels - search "Lakewood Elementary PTA" on the site before shopping and 20% of proceeds will go back to Lakewood PTA
- Bright Star Labels
- Name Bubbles
What to Include
Using a first name and homeroom (or first name and last initial, if preferred) helps us return items quickly (I.e. Isla B. - KF)
Where to Look
The Lost & Found is located on the cabinet/racks inside the LWE Cafeteria, as well as on the outdoor hooks near the LWE Cafeteria doors (for recently lost items or items that are too dirty to be stored inside).
Please Note: Lost & Found is cleared out periodically throughout the school year. Watch the Stallion Spotlight and PTA social media for reminders before unclaimed items are donated.
