Media State Champions
Six students from LSHS Media Productions 2 represented their school at the State Leadership and Skills Conference in Grand Rapids. Not only did they successfully defend their State Title, but they also swept the competition by earning the top three spots:
🥇 1st place State Champions: Abby Smith* and Jimmy Sheen - https://youtu.be/eDOQSakeBRE
🥈 2nd place: Conner Carney and Ella Pascoe - https://youtu.be/_lXIG4y4aio
🥉 3rd place: Megan Sweeney and Lukas Storbeck - https://youtu.be/rqGEaxkoEio
Media teacher Mrs. Blaszkowski explained, "This year, I brought three teams of two to compete in the Digital Cinema Production category. Their challenge? Create a 1-minute video based on a prompt, using the Grand Rapids Public Museum as their location. The process is intense: students attend a walkthrough Friday afternoon, plan their shoot, and attend the opening session. On Saturday, competition day kicks off at 8:00 AM with setup, a technical test, resume submission, clothing and music license checks. Teams get two hours to film on location, two hours to edit, and 15 minutes to export their final video. It’s a long, challenging day—but incredibly rewarding."
*Abby Smith is also the 2025-2026 SkillsUSA Michigan State Vice President! Abby began the candidate process in November, which included extensive paperwork, an interview, test, letters of recommendation, transcripts, and more. She was officially approved to run, and throughout the weekend juggled both her competition responsibilities and her officer candidacy.
To top it all off, Abby and Jimmy have qualified for SkillsUSA Nationals in Atlanta, June 23–27!
Blaszkowski wrote, "It truly was the best possible outcome for our Lake Shore team. If you see any of our competitors or Abby, please congratulate them. This was a massive accomplishment and took months of preparation and hard work. We are so proud!"
In addition, we have several other competition results that we're excited to announce:
Knock Out Violence winners were announced by the Macomb Prosecutors Office and Media Productions students earned a 2nd place and $750 award (divided 3 ways). Congratulations to Conner Carney, Ella Pascoe and Megan Sweeney for their video titled Think About It.
Congratulations to Brianna Little & Grace Garrison and Abby Smith, Jimmy Sheen, and Lukas Storbeck for making the Courageous Persuaders Top 60 out of 350 video submissions. Drunk Driving Gone Wrong and The Domino Effect are in the running for scholarship money, announced on May 14th at the Emagine Theater in Royal Oak.
Congratulations to Alaina Handy's PSA - At What Cost, Abby Smith and Jimmy Sheen's Business Partnership - Pawsitive Changes Therapy Dogs, and Abby Smith, Jimmy Sheen, and Lukas Storbeck's PSA - The Domino Effect for receiving Best of Show for the Digital, Arts, Film Theater organization based in the Detroit area.
Congratulations to the 12 awardees from Honorable Mention to 2nd place in the Michigan Interscholastic Press Association's competition. Blaszkowski explained, "This program is based out of Michigan State and involves schools across the State and had over 450 entries across all categories. They have various categories in Digital Media, Video Journalism, Video Production, Journalism newspaper and yearbook. Most of these are the features I require Media 2 to create and it is made even better by the community involvement including: Dox Restaurant, Lake Shore Transportation Department, Violet Elementary, Kitty Deluxe in St. Clair Shores, Wally's Frozen Custard, Lakers Unified Hockey team, Pawsitive Changes Therapy Dogs Organization and district requests."
Bonus: Congratulations to LSHS's Brook Atkinson who recently competed in the SkillsUSA Early Childhood competition representing Pankow; She earned a Gold Medal and State Championship! We shared this story featuring Brook back in February.

Looking forward, we are excited to celebrate Purpose (4/28-5/2) and Enthusiasm (5/5-9).
Village Kindness
No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
Elementary students from Masonic Heights, Rodgers, and Violet brightened the day for shoppers at Guastello’s Village Market by handing out $10 gift certificates to help cover grocery costs.
Guastello’s, a beloved neighborhood grocery store, has been family-owned and operated since 1950. With a deep commitment to their customers and community, they proudly live by their motto: “We are your one stop store!”
These gift certificates were made possible thanks to the generosity of Michigan Insurance and Financial Services, a valued local community partner.
During the visit, Lake Shore students had the chance to meet some special shoppers, including Lake Shore Foundation Board of Trustee member Ron Bartley, former Board of Education Treasurer Mark Beghin, and, according to the team at Village Market, their #1 customer, Michael Christopher. These are all people who have serving hearts!
One especially joyful moment came when Sandy Rubino received her gift certificate from Lake Shore Public Schools. Her daughter, JoMarie Ventimeglia, is a 4th grade teacher at Rodgers Elementary—and this proud mom truly understood the impact of this wellness lesson.
When given the gift certificate, a few customers chose to return it, believing the money could be better used by someone else. That’s a true act of selflessness.
We even overheard a shopper say, “The timing couldn’t have been any better!” A small gesture can mean so much—because we may not always know what someone is going through, but we do know that kindness makes all the difference.
As a sweet thank-you, Guastello’s treated the students to some of their delicious cookies, making the day even more memorable. Thank you for helping spread kindness—it’s contagious!
Great Start Readiness Program PD
The Great Start Readiness Program (GSRP) is Michigan’s free PreK program for eligible four-year-olds. Ranked #1 in the U.S., it’s a safe place where children learn how to get along with others, share, take turns, and make friends.
Great Start Readiness Preschool at Lake Shore recognizes that each child has the right to enter school ready to learn. Families come with many needs, and societal and cultural factors may impact a child's readiness to learn. It is the philosophy of GSRP to provide an early learning environment that:
- -Acknowledges that each child is a whole person whose growth and development occurs in specific, predictable, sequential and continuous stages that can be positively impacted through quality experiences.
- -Encourages and challenges each child to safely explore, create, speculate, experiment, and evaluate.
- -Openly welcomes and enlists parents as vital partners in their children's educational endeavors, to focus learning in the context of the family.
Learning is essential to our growth and an indispensable tool for the Shorian Nation.
Lake Shore Public Schools staff continues to use Professional Development days as an important time to strengthen our skills as professionals and adapt to the ever changing learning, cultural, and social-emotional needs of our children. From the most effective and innovative instructional strategies to school safety and student well-being matters, investing this time at the Lake Shore Early Childhood Center is a key to the on-going high level of success for our students.
April 21st was our final scheduled PD day of the 2024-25 school year. We appreciate Taylor Darga, PreK for All GSRP Early Child Coordinator and Karen Nelson, PreK for All GSRP Early Childhood Specialist for their delivery of How Play Connects to Learning through the MISD.
They explained, "High quality instruction and high quality free play do not have to compete for time in the classroom. Doing both makes each one richer."
Thank you GSRP teachers Ms. Herr, Ms. Johnston, Ms. Mullen, Ms. Tilicki, Ms. Zweng, and the rest of the team for your dedication to our youngest learners!
Violet Elementary's 25th Annual Talent Show
We were absolutely entertained by 26 incredible acts at Violet Elementary's 25th Annual Talent Show!
To check out the Talent Show program, visit: https://docs.google.com/.../1AT5c4cdj6c93ahcBh0ZdtiuhLTW.../
A huge shoutout to our fantastic Masters of Ceremony team—Paisley Gordon, Liliana Lovati, Harper Miller, & Aubrey Scharver—for keeping the energy high and the show flowing! The performances were nothing short of amazing, from singing and dancing to comedy and tumbling. Every performer brought their A-game, and we couldn’t have been more impressed watching you shine!
Brothers Ben (13) and Zachariah Wronski (10) performed I Always Wanted a Brother from Disney's Mufasa. Fourth grader Zach invited his big brother Ben, a 7th grader at Kennedy Middle School, to join him for the special duet. Ben, a former member of Violet's 4th and 5th grade choir, was honored to return and support his little brother. The pair even wore matching “I love my brother” shirts, adding an extra dose of sweetness to their performance.
In the audience, their Gmaw Lori watched with teary eyes, proudly saying, “My grandsons are everything to me.”
Madilynn Deriemacker lit up the stage with a bright smile and a joyful song, while Alyssa Margitish wowed the crowd with a dazzling gymnastics routine, showcasing skills she’s honed over three years at Cutting Edge.
Your display of talent made us smile, and trust us, you're far from amateurs. Your skills are impressive, but what’s even more inspiring is the strength of character you all showed. We’re so proud of both who you are and the extraordinary abilities you possess.
A big thank you to Mrs. Pecoraro and our backstage crew—Lily Adams, Madison Barry, Ellianna Hacker, Griffin Hovis, Teigen Jacks, Laila Marshall, Adalin Parker, Isla Rent, Caleb Smith, & McKenna Stefankiewicz—for making this event such a success!
Reach high, for stars lie hidden in you!
You can’t have wellness without a little music.
The Lakeshore Ukulele Strummers visited Violet Elementary to collaborate with Mrs. Rueger-West's 4th graders. Here's where it all began: https://www.facebook.com/myLSPS/posts/612298270906498
This vibrant group of 30 ukulele enthusiasts now meets every Wednesday for two hours of practice—but back in 2019, it all started with just two members. It was group leader Sue Goeddeke who sparked its formation, placing a simple ad in the Sentinel inviting anyone interested in learning or already experienced in playing the ukulele to come together.
Music teacher Kim Rueger-West later joined the group and helped bridge the connection between the club and her school program. One of the group's most inspiring members, Virginia, began strumming the ukulele at just 10 years old—just like today's 4th graders. Now 97, her love for the instrument continues strong, proving that the ukulele truly is a lifelong passion worth sharing.
Joe and Suzy Ladouceur, married for 59 years, are another heartwarming example. Together, they play both the ukulele and harmonica, creating music that has become a treasured part of their journey.
We watched with pride as the All-Star students worked through their nerves and joined these seasoned players to perform classics like This Land Is Your Land and You Are My Sunshine. The intergenerational jam session was filled with joy, talent, and genuine connection—an unforgettable experience for all involved.
Video clip: https://x.com/mylsps/status/1912244892530823583?s=46...
A big thank-you goes out to Music Teacher Kim Rueger-West and her colleague Bernadette Wischmeyer, who successfully wrote a grant proposal to the Lake Shore Foundation. Thanks to their efforts, ukuleles—provided by Ardis Music—are now available in all three elementary schools, positively impacting over 500 students.
Bonus: Six of our students were selected to participate in the MSBOA District XVI Middle School/Junior High Honors Band, hosted at Lake Shore High School! They were split into a 7th grade band, conducted by Ms. Kristin Blanchard, and an 8th/9th grade band, conducted by Dr. Ken Thompson. Our students were:
7th:
- Lorelei Vitali - Flute
- Dylan Elberson - Clarinet
- Sarah Neimann - Trombone
8th:
- Kalix Loumanis - Clarinet
- Maxson Pojeta - French Horn
- Montez Patterson - Euphonium
Mr. Malabed and Mr. Alter are so proud of these wonderful students!
Hot Chocolate at Dropoff
We share a thank you to EOS Cafe and Coffee House for sponsoring 300+ cups of joy! Even on 35 degree mornings, a cup of hot chocolate made everyone smile.
Our middle school staff surprised Kennedy Middle School families at dropoff with a warm, comforting cup of cocoa. Being kind makes everyone happy and gives a feeling of well-being, in perfect timing for Wellness Week.
Video clip: https://x.com/myLSPS/status/1912929788018241662
We heard from students who said, "You made my mom's day!" and grownups who said, "This was the best surprise!" We gave and felt the love. At KMS, staff volunteers delivered the cocoa while a few students held wellness messages.
And yes, hot chocolate is good for your gut! Not only is cacao a source of iron, but it is known to increase levels of dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins, all feel-good neurotransmitters. It is also considered a prebiotic, which our guts feed on to foster a healthy gut microbiome.
School Social Worker Kayla Glombowski reflected, "Wellness week is one of my favorite times of the year, as we focus on caring for our minds, bodies, and each other. The hot chocolate hand-off provides our staff and students the opportunity to come together and give back to others. The excitement and appreciation from parents in the drop off line is so much fun to watch. One small cup of hot chocolate can change someone's entire day!"
We appreciate our LSHS MoCI students for adhering advertisement to the cups!

Take Your Child to Work Day
On April 24th we celebrated our Family Tree with Bring Your Child to Work Day. The memories we make with our families is everything. We observed our kids' curiosity spark as they were encouraged to actively participate in learning activities. They met new friends and were impressed by their kindness and intelligence, and overall helpful demeanors.
Ten-year-old Max Walter visited North Lake High School with Mrs. Oliver. The two share a love for singing and enjoy performing together. Over at Masonic Heights, energetic siblings Everett (7) and James (5) spent their day playing catch, soccer, and baseball with their mom Mrs. Larke.
Mrs. Ventimeglia from Rodgers Elementary was joined by 13-year-old Mia, who enjoys helping out in the classroom and around the school. "Mia loves interacting with my students," Mrs. Ventimeglia shared. "She also plays volleyball and soccer in her free time."
At Violet Elementary, Mr. Pittinato welcomed Samantha (12) and Justin (14) for their first-ever Take Your Child to Work Day. "Samantha was especially excited to visit the Kindergarteners," he said, "and Justin couldn’t wait to assist in the gym."
We are always building a sense of community in the classroom and within our schools. Thank you, Shorian Nation, for welcoming your offspring into your learning spaces! We also appreciate Rachel Nagorsen, Community Relations Director with American House, for sponsoring Donuts with a Grownup! In honor of Bring Your Child to Work Day, Lake Shore employees were encouraged to invite their children to work, resulting in free donuts! Every parent & kid enjoyed this tasty treat and it was our way of encouraging a culture that puts family first. Shoutout to Caleb from Golden Donuts for special donut pricing and red & white icing/sprinkles for LSPS branding!
If you would like to submit a photo from Bring Your Child to Work Day event, please email social@lsps.org. In addition, we encourage you to assist us with gathering photos of "moms" and "dads" with your children in preparation for our Mother's Day and Father's Day celebratory features in May and June. Send us a photo to add to our collection!
P.S. We were honored to support families as they helped their children explore careers beyond the classroom!
LSPS School Bus Driver's Day
With a combined 200 years of service, our bus drivers are personable and dedicated to ensuring safety for everyone aboard. Thank you for providing a fleet of buses that are safe and reliable for the riders we serve.
Our 12 buses meet all safety points and have received a green tag from the Michigan State Police. This means that we have a 100% pass rate through the school bus inspection program.
In October we recognized National School Bus Safety Week. The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is urging drivers to slow down and be aware of school buses in their communities.
It is illegal for vehicle drivers to pass a school bus while the school bus stop-arm is extended and the red lights are flashing. Failing to stop could result in injury or death to child pedestrians or their caretakers. Vehicle drivers must always come to a complete stop when a school bus stop-arm is extended and the red lights are flashing.
Thank you again to Robert Stark for capturing our '25 drone pictures on behalf of the Class of 2025 and providing this service for years. He continues to share his artistic talents for all of our Shorian Nation to enjoy! We also appreciate Val Harvey, Don McGarvah, Doug Domzal, Marian Caputo, and Kelly St. Amand for assisting with the bus setup!
Bonus: Mrs. Fain's MiCI students are learning how to take the SMART bus with assistance from Programs to Educate All Cyclists (PEAC). PEAC empowers individuals with disabilities through cycling, active transportation, and self-advocacy education.
Fain explained, "We had two amazing speakers and group coordinators that taught or students about learning how to use the smart bus. We had the opportunity to go on 2 trips. We walked to the Smart bus stop near Kennedy Middle School and took the bus to and from Hobby Lobby and Dunhams. The coordinators Katelyn Britton and Tyler were amazing. Our students all received Smart Bus ID cards."
Thanks to the PEAC coordinators for utilizing their mission to help our kids!
Macomb County Green Schools
Congratulations to Lake Shore Public Schools for encouraging students to participate in activities that are good for the environment and promote energy efficiency and savings; Your efforts earned the following LSPS buildings Macomb County Green Schools Designations for the 2024/2025 cycle:
- Masonic Heights Elementary: Green
- Violet Elementary: Evergreen
- Kennedy Middle School: Evergreen
There are 77 Green Schools representing Macomb County this year, including 10 new or returning schools! This year we will participate in a TRI-COUNTY GREEN SCHOOLS CELEBRATION EVENT with Oakland and Wayne counties on May 1st at the Detroit Zoo!
Established in 2006, the Michigan Green Schools program is open to any K-12 public or private school in Michigan. To receive a “Green School” designation, each school must apply by submitting an appropriate application to the county/intermediate school district in which the school is located each year. The intent of the Michigan Green Schools Program is to encourage students to participate in activities which help them learn about preserving natural resources, protecting the environment, and to promote energy efficiency and savings.
To learn more, visit https://bocmacomb.org/programs/macomb-county-green-schools/.
Bonus: National Honor Society planted 26 trees at the Brys Park Arboretum for Arbor Day as part of a community initiative with St. Clair Shores City Council, Parks and Rec, CDI and DPW staff!
Double Bonus: Seed to Table is a quarterly exploratory at Kennedy Middle School that allows students to learn gardening skills. They started by putting seeds in damp paper towels. The paper towels were then put in plastic bags and hung in the classroom window to germinate. Just a few days later, the seeds had sprouts and the students planted them in repurposed containers. They had an assortment of greens, radishes, string beans, basil, and peas in their gardens.

We have partnered with Kroger to help fund our athletics. Please read this letter from our Athletic Coordinator Rich Bowers.
