Thank you for your continuing financial support of our school; while the Read-A-Thon fundraiser is officially over, you can make a donation to the PTSA anytime to support the school. We'd love to cover school supplies for all students again this fall and more.
As part of the Read-a-Thon and in celebration of Asian American & Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month in May, various Lakeview families also joined library time to share a special book of their cultural heritage and celebrate the diversity in the Lakeview community.
A Night of Spectacular Science at the Science Fair
We had over 160+ science presenters proudly sharing their learning with the school community. Students also saw a liquids experiment, learned how to make their own mason beehives, and enjoyed demonstrations from the LWHS robotics team.
