News You Can Use
Nut Free
If your learner is in a nut-free room, please note these reminders:
- Snacks may not contain nuts since they are eaten in the classroom. Nuts are allowed at lunchtime since there is a separate nut-free table.
Learners are not to share food at snack time or lunchtime to prevent exposure to allergens.
If you are unsure if your learner is in a nut-free room, please reach out to your learner's homeroom teacher or the school nurse. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding to ensure Lakeside is safe for all our learners!
Thank you,
Nurse Katie
Friday Lunch Visitor Reminders
Lunch visitors are able to sit in designated areas or at designated tables. Visitors should not sit at the student tables.
Lunch visitors must sign in and wear their visitor badge while on campus.
Visitors can not share the food they bring with children other than their own.
We have a nut free table available. Anyone who sits at that table should have a nut free lunch.
Thank you
October 31st
At Lakeside we have started the tradition of dressing as a favorite character on October 31st. We all enjoy seeing some of the "characters" that come to campus that day. Please review the reminders below when deciding how to plan for that day. Please remember that participation is optional. If your child wants to participate but their evening look is not school appropriate a sports jersey, pjs, or a thematic tee can be a great option.
Outfits:
Please remember that October 31st is a school day and kids are asked to dress in a school approved manner. Dressing festively is fun but the following accessories should not be included in festive attire: masks, face paint, angry or scary imagery, weapons of any type, tails, horns, large accessories, or clothing that will restrict movement or cause discomfort. Our primary focus is always active instruction. We ask that festive attire not detract from student learning.
Treats:
If you are heading out for some trick or treating on the 31st please remember to be careful and try not to stay out too late. We do ask that any candy collected that night remain at home.
If a stray piece of candy finds its way into your child's lunch box the next day we won't worry too much about it.
Have lots of fun!
*We will be accepting candy donations for our troops (see the note below).
Treats for the Troops
5th grade is planning on collecting candy again this year. We want to set up the bins at the ends of hallways. We plan to start collecting on Nov. 1 and end on Nov. 8.
