VIP's SOAR - Showing Outstanding Effort!
Family Message
Dear Lakeview Families,
We are proud to have a school filled with compassionate students! Be sure to check out the dress-up days planned for Kindness Week.
Additionally, we are still gathering donations for the American Heart Association. We are halfway to our goal for Coach Smith to plant a kiss on "Lady Bacon" very soon!
We also have a shorter week ahead, with Friday and Monday off for Professional Day and Presidents' Day. In addition, Live at Lakeview will be taking place on Thursday, and students are invited to dress in their fanciest attire for the "Fancy Friendship Dance" during their PE and Music classes. The schedule will be different on this day as we will be participating in a student STEM assembly in the afternoon. Friendship Parties will be held at 2:00.
As always, we encourage open communication and collaboration between our school and families. If you have any questions, suggestions, or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at 405-366-5899 or email me at paulap@normanps.org. We value your continued support in fostering a culture of academic achievement at our school.
Warm regards,
Paula Palermo

We are half way there!
Join the Kids Heart Challenge at Lakeview Elementary! Our goal is to rally all families to join our team, learn Hands-Only CPR, build awareness, and raise $2,000 for the American Heart Association.
Ready to kick off? Sign up, make a lifesaving donation, and start Finn’s Mission by downloading the free app for iPhone or Android, or registering online: http://www2.heart.org/goto/LakeviewElementaryNormanOK
The heart of the matter:
One family saved a life with Hands-Only CPR that they learned from Finn’s Mission. Hands-Only CPR, provided immediately after sudden cardiac arrest, can double or triple a victim's chance of survival.
