Principal Message
Happy New Year! I hope this message finds you and your family in good health and high spirits. As we embark on 2024, it brings me great joy to welcome our students back to school tomorrow.
I trust that each of you had a restful and enjoyable holiday break. Now, as we return to our academic routines at school, I am confident that the second half of the school year will be just as rewarding and successful as the first.
January brings a sense of renewal and opportunity. It's a time for our students to set new goals, embrace fresh challenges, and continue their journey of growth and learning, both socially and academically. I am excited to continue to partner with you in supporting and encouraging our students every step of their way.

A Note from Nurse Trina
Please ensure that if your child is injured or has any other reasons for limitations during their school time that you contact the nurse at troufs@nsd.org or 425-408-5806. Nurse Trina will then share that information with your student's teacher, playground staff, and physical education teachers.
Interested In Learning More About PACE?
PACE at Lockwood is now conducting tours for the 2024-2025 school year! Parents Active in Cooperative Education (PACE) is a choice educational enrichment program offered to Northshore School District (NSD) students in grades 1-5. Join us on one of our tours to learn more about the program and to see if it would be the right option for your family. Taking a tour is a great way to learn more about PACE at Lockwood and includes more in-depth information about the program including enrichments, participation requirements and the opportunity to ask questions. We offer both in-person and virtual options, with the in-person tours providing an opportunity to briefly observe our classrooms.
Tours run now through February 7th with both virtual and in-person options. Please sign up for a date of your choice here: https://bit.ly/3FmkD3z. For questions, please contact our Membership Chair, Kelly McDonald, at membership@paceatlockwood.org
