Dear Lakeside Families,
We are excited to invite you to our upcoming Family Night on October 8th from 5:00-7:00 PM and our Walk AT School event on October 9th from 7:15-7:45 AM. These are wonderful opportunities for us to come together as a community, connect, and celebrate our school spirit. Family Night will be filled with fun activities and be themed around the book The Wild Robot. We look forward to enjoying this book together as a Lakeside community.
We are still looking for volunteers to help make these events a success. If you're interested in lending a hand, please reach out to our PTO or the Lakeside Office. Thank you for your continued support and partnership.

Scholastic Book Fair Next Week!
The Lakeside PTO is hosting a Scholastic Book Fair that will be held in the Media Center October 7th - 10th. The sale will run during student lunch hours (10:50am - 12:05pm) daily, and also from 5 - 7 pm on October 8th, which is our Fall Family Night.
This year, say goodbye to cash and hello to eWallet - your child's digital payment account. Before the Fair, set up eWallet for worry-free, cash-free purchases. Anyone can contribute! Share each child's eWallet so friends and family can add funds and give your kids more books to enjoy!
If you can't make it to the Fair, then shop at our school's Online Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.
Visit our Book Fair homepage to learn more and get started with eWallet and online shopping!
Picture Retake Day - October 23rd!
Pictures from our picture day on September 18th should be arriving at school soon. If you ordered photos online or with a paper form on or before picture day, your package will come home with your student soon. If you did NOT order pictures, it's not too late! A proof sheet will come home with your student with an order link.
Don't like the photo? No problem! Lakeside's picture retake day is October 23rd. If you already ordered a package and want a retake, just send the photo package back to school with your child on the 23rd and your package will be re-created with the new photo. If you want a retake but haven't yet ordered, you can download the form HERE, or contact the office and we'll send one home with your student. Order forms need to be given to the photographer on the retake day in order to avoid shipping charges.
Coming Soon…Lakeside’s Annual Pumpkin Decorating Contest!
