Happy Thanksgiving!

Today students had a surprise assembly as a reward for all their hard work with PBIS this school year. Students are remembering their "Cool Tools" and collecting Spartan Stars. Therefore this morning we had the Jessie White Tumblers as our surprise guests. They were fantastic and the students really enjoyed the event. Congratulations to the Lakeview students on all of their hard work!

Have a great weekend and Happy Thanksgiving!
