ARE YOU READY? The Auction is here! Tomorrow evening will be a cherished, fun-filled Lakeside evening at the Toll House. Each year the Auction Committee hosts an incredible event that is over the top. The students at Lakeside are the lucky recipients of the year long dedicated work by the Foundation Committee and the generosity of the supporters who bid actively or by proxy on the wonderful items. "The Stars" will be out at the Toll House on Saturday Night!
Monday May 1st we will be celebrating May Day at 9:00 a.m. The teachers and staff have been preparing for this lovely Lakeside tradition.
This is one event you do not want to miss.
State Testing begins next week for the 3rd and 5th grade students. Make sure your child has plenty of sleep and a nutritious breakfast each day. Testing for the 3rd and 5th grade students will begin each morning at 8:30 am starting May 2nd. Please be on time!

The 5th Grade handmade quilt tickets will be available for sale at the auction. Try your luck at winning a beautiful student made quilt.

Thank you to the parents that provided input at the LCAP Stakeholder Meeting on Thursday. Your valued input is much appreciated. I expect to see the draft of our LCAP in late May. The final version will be placed on the June Board Agenda for public review.

The Mountain Emergency Response Corps (MERC), the local unit of the Red Cross, will offer a free 1 hour presentation entitled Helping Children in Times of Stress. It will cover the developmental factors that influence children’s reactions to stress and how they react to stress. It will explain the 10 tips for helping children and teens build resilience - the ability to bounce back from difficult times - and how to help
children cope with the stresses in their lives by providing psychological first aid. The participants will receive an easy to use resource book. It will start at 7:30 PM on May 9th at the Redwood Estates Pavilion. For info contact George Smith, [email protected].
The American Red Cross has a long history of providing support to others in times of crisis. By drawing on Red Cross expertise, this course can help family members, friends and neighbors provide better
emotional support to one another in times of common stress and strain, and even during times of crisis and disaster.

Enjoy your weekend. Wow, May will be knocking at our door on Monday.

Best Regards,

Elizabeth Bozzo

Interim Superintendent
