The Annual Founder's Day brunch was yesterday, and the Lakewood PTA would like to extend a heartfelt "thank you" to LECPTA for presenting Lakewood Elementary with $200,000!  LECPTA members work tirelessly throughout the year to raise not only these funds, but also money that is donated to schools in our feeder pattern. We are forever grateful for their dedication to our school. 

Two LWE Executive Board Members received Lifetime Achievement Awards: Kiley White (Recording Secretary) and Alex Fergus (Communications Chair). Please join us in congratulating Kiley and Alex! 

Our very own LWE PTA President, Julie Griffith, was joined by Long and WWHS PTA Presidents, and spoke on the panel. 

Thank you, LECPTA, for a memorable morning!

Time is running out to order your yearbook – order by April 19 for delivery to the school!  Head to this link!

Due to a requirement for a Secure Testing Environment, please be aware that we will not be allowed to have outside of DISD volunteers or visitors on our campus on these days. 

Please be sure that your students get plenty of rest and eat breakfast during these testing weeks. Also make sure that you are not scheduling any appointments on these days if your student is a 3rd, 4^th or 5^th grader. Your support and cooperation is greatly appreciated!

The schedule is as follows:

Wednesday, April 17

Science STAAR, grade 5

Wednesday, April 24

Math STAAR, grades 3-5

If a student is absent on a day that a STAAR test is administered for their grade, make-up tests will be given upon the student's return, preferably the Thursday or Friday of the same test week.

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We understand the importance of a safe and efficient transportation system for all students.  Over the past few years, the increasing number of magnet school students using Lakewood Elementary as a bus stop has created a congested environment during the 7:40-8:00 am window. With this window of time also being the peak arrival for Lakewood Elementary students, it has raised concerns from parents, community members, and school officials about student safety.

A thorough safety evaluation conducted by the Dallas ISD transportation office identified high traffic volume and limited drop-off areas for parents during this timeframe. This congestion has resulted in unsafe situations where students may have to walk between moving vehicles.

To prioritize student safety, we will be adjusting the bus pick-up time for Travis and Sudie campuses, at Lakewood Elementary to 7:30 am for the upcoming 2024-2025 school year.  We understand that this may disrupt existing routines, and we apologize for any inconvenience.

Benefits of this Change:

• Improved student and community safety by reducing congestion during peak arrival times.
• Continued use of Lakewood Elementary as a bus stop.
• Travis/Sudie campus is aware of the change and will have staff available to receive students upon their earlier arrival.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in prioritizing the safety of our students. We will continue to monitor the situation and communicate any further updates as needed.

Sign up for a station at FUN FEST for 3rd - 5th grade!
