Dear Lakewood families,
Welcome back! We hope you had a restful and enjoyable Spring Break. We are so excited to have our students back this week and are looking forward to a strong finish to the semester together.
This week, our students jumped right back into learning with some wonderful field trip experiences. Our second graders enjoyed a trip to the Dallas Children’s Theater, our fourth graders visited the Dallas Arboretum through a district supported experience, and our fifth graders explored the Environmental Education Center. These opportunities help bring learning to life, and we are grateful to our staff and parent volunteers who made them possible.
We are also looking forward to our upcoming LOLA Night tonight. This is always a fun and engaging event for our students and families, and we are so appreciative of the time and effort that goes into planning it. A special thank you to our LOLA chairs, Molly Schnettler and Elaine Bell, for their leadership and dedication in organizing such a meaningful experience for our community.
As we move into the final stretch of the school year, we will also begin our spring testing season. Our first round of STAAR state assessments will take place on April 8. Our students have been working hard all year, and we are confident in their preparation. More information will be shared soon to help families feel informed and ready as we approach testing.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. We are grateful to have our students back and are excited for all that lies ahead in the weeks to come.
Stallion Strong,
Principal Thompson
