Message from the Principal
Lake Families,
PLEASE be prepared to pick up on time every day! As a reminder, we will have two early release days for staff professional development this week. On Monday and Wednesday, we dismiss at 12:58.
Thank you for sending your kiddos with a large water bottle and dressed for comfort in the heat!
It is my great privilege to announce that California PBIS has OFFICIALLY recognized Lake as a CA PBIS GOLD school! Read the full letter HERE. This is not only a direct result of our PBIS teams’ hard work under Catherine Worrell’s and Holly McManus’ dedicated leadership with Tier I and Tier II, respectively, but it is also a result of Team Lake’s school-wide commitment to the implementation of PBIS. We are teaching positive behavior in great ways, bit by bit, socially, and emotionally.
In partnership with you.
Dr. Davina Stringer

“Our deepest calling is to grow into our own authentic selfhood, whether or not it conforms to some image of who we ought to be. As we do so, we will not only find the joy that every human seeks — we will also find our path of authentic service in the world.”
