Hello Lakeshore Families,
Welcome to December! Thank you to all our families who made the time to visit with our teachers on Thursday night and Friday. Conferences are always a great time to connect, discuss our students and share strengths and areas for growth. Here are the updates you need for the week ahead.
BEAR Awards for November
Early this week, the November BEAR Awards will be handed out. For November, our staff are nominating students who demonstrate Ambition.
School Musical Preparations Begin – Mandatory Meeting Tuesday
There will be a mandatory meeting regarding the school musical on Tuesday, December 3rd, during lunch in the drama room. This meeting will cover very important information about the show, including details about auditions, which will be taking place on December 10th & 11th after school.
Students will receive important paperwork during this meeting and will have the opportunity to sign up for an audition time slot. It is crucial that all students who wish to be part of the play (cast OR crew) attend this meeting.
If any students are interested but unable to attend, they must speak with Mrs. Beazer, Mrs. Cooper, or Ms. Taylor ASAP to ensure they receive the necessary information for auditions.
