Best of luck to our 3rd and 5th grade students who will be taking the M-STEP again this week. Remember to take your time, re-read if needed, and put in your best effort and you'll do great!!
Today is Earth Day!! Here are 10 things you can do for our planet any day, because Earth day is everyday!
1. Reduce, reuse, and recycle. Cut down on what you throw away. Follow the three "R's" to conserve natural resources and landfill space.
2. Volunteer. Volunteer for cleanups in your community. You can get involved in protecting your watershed, too.
3. Educate. When you further your own education, you can help others understand the importance and value of our natural resources.
4. Conserve water. The less water you use, the less runoff and wastewater that eventually end up in the ocean.
5. Choose sustainable. Learn how to make decisions that prioritize environmental and social responsibility .
6. Shop wisely. Buy less plastic and bring a reusable shopping bag.
7. Use long-lasting light bulbs. Energy efficient light bulbs reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Also flip the light switch off when you leave the room!
8. Plant a tree. Trees provide food and oxygen. They help save energy, clean the air, and help combat climate change.
9. Don't send chemicals into our waterways. Choose non-toxic chemicals in the home.
10. Bike more. Drive less.
This week, our 4th grade students will be taking the language arts M-STEP and our 5th graders will be taking the math M-STEP. These assessments will take place on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Best of luck to all of our students!!

Spring is in full swing here in Michigan, if you weren't able to tell the last few days! Our hallways are decorated to welcome the changing season and encourage our students as they gear up for testing season. Hopefully we will get to enjoy some sunny weather soon! Like the banner says, April showers bring May flowers!
Happy para professionals day to all the paras out there! We are luck to have so many amazing paras here at Lakewood, including in our resource rooms, office, and other areas of our building! We wouldn't be able to do what we do without all of you!
Dear Lakewood Families,
At the end of the day on Friday April 4th, the items in the Lost and Found will be donated. Please come take a look at the Lost and Found located inside the main doors. Encourage your student to take a look through the Lost and Found for that missing coat or misplaced hat.
Thank you!
Yesterday half of our grades did their third round of SOAR expectation assemblies in areas of our school such as the cafeteria, playground, and their classrooms. They reviewed expected behavior and how they can earn SOAR tickets. Today, the second half of classes will attend.
When driving on the Bogie Lake Campus, it is important to remember that all traffic laws must be followed, including stop signs. We have several students that travel on foot between the middle and high school for classes, and we need to work together to make sure that everyone is safe. Additionally, if you drop your children off after 9:20, they must be walked in and signed in. Thank you for your attention to these matters.
Did you know that April is National Autism Acceptance month, and April 2nd is World Autism Awareness day?
World Autism Awareness Day is an internationally recognized day annually on April 2nd, encouraging Member States of the United Nations to take measures to raise awareness about autistic individuals throughout the world. Next Wednesday, Lakewood Hawks are encouraged to wear their SOMI "belonging" t-shirts or anything blue in support and acceptance of those with autism!
Thank you so much for a fun and successful night full of laughter, friends and magic! What an amazing show Baffling Bill the Magician put on for us! Tonight was AWESOME!!!!! 🪄 🎩 🐰
Reminder we have spring break next week, March 24th through Friday the 28th! We return to school the following Monday (3/31)! Stay safe and have fun!!
Yesterday our 4th graders were visited by DTE for their Think Energy in-school program. During this engaging activity, students learned about energy literacy and energy efficiency that include activities, student discussion and an interactive review game! Each student also received a Take Action Kit with energy-efficient products that they were able to take home!
We hope you had a hootin' tootin' time at the Wild West Family Dance last Friday. Here are some cowboys and cowgirls enjoying their time on the wild frontier!
Today Mrs. Frazier's class earned PBIS bingo as their prize for earning over 600 SOAR tickets the last few weeks. They were joined by their 5th grade buddies, from Ms. Beach's class, who showed leadership skills by helping their buddy understand the rules of Bingo and picking out prizes! Way to go to both classes, it was awesome to see them working together and having fun!
Howdy, Hawks! We hope you are ready to gallop into the weekend with our Wild West Family Dance TONIGHT 6-8 PM! Friendly reminder, food and beverages will not be provided, so please plan ahead. See you at the shindig!
