Our after school music club has been have a great time learning about music and dancing, as well as creating some fun digital performances. One such performance is a version of a popular dance song, which the students titled "Lakeview Style." As the students shared about this video with friends and family, it became a popular view online, and has received the attention of KAAL-TV's "viral video" segment. You can see this segment Thursday morning, around 5:20 and 6:20. We will also link the segment to our web site after it airs. What a great way to celebrate all of the wonderful opportunities students are participating in at Lakeview.
If you haven't seen it yet, here is the link for the "Lakeview Style" video.

Prairie Fire Theater
Lakeview Families,
This year, our parent group
LESO is excited to be able to offer an opportunity for our students in grade
3-5 to participate in Prairie Fire Theater. Students will have the opportunity to
audition for and perform in a play the week of February 4th. Prairie Fire sends two trained performers down
to spend the week with our students and help them put on the show. Our 5th
grade student council students have chosen “Jack and the Beanstalk” as the
play, and they will perform February 8 and 9 in the evening and morning, respectively,
at the Southwest Middle School Theater. The play can accommodate a very large
amount of students, so every child will have the opportunity to be involved.
The schedule of the week is
below. We will work each day after school. Exact times will be announced closer
to the actual date. Prairie Fire will work with the students’ schedules for the
week so as many kids can participate as possible.

Tickets for adults will be $5,
and kids will get in for free, in an effort to make sure everyone has the opportunity

Welcome Back!
As we welcomed students back this week after the holiday, it was great to see students and staff refreshed and ready to get back in our routines. I hope everyone had a restful break and is excited to be back. This month teachers will continue to work with students on various assessments that they will use to adjust their instruction and ensure that each child is doing the best they can this school year.
In addition to our academic work, we are preparing for two exciting extra-curricular events that take place in February. First, we will be participating in an activity called Prairie Fire Theater the first week of February, which will allow students to work with some actors from the theater company and perform for the public Friday evening and Saturday morning. Watch for more info in the coming week. Also, our annual Fun Night will be on February 22. Our parent group LESO is working hard to get this fun evening prepared, and is always ready to accept additional help. If you'd like to help out with either of the above activities, please contact Lakeview and we can help you connect with the appropriate individuals.
Thanks again for all you do for your students and Lakeview, and welcome to the new year.
