Lower School News & Information

From Brent Drury Lower School Director

I hope your family had a terrific Thanksgiving. It was wonderful to spend some family time with those we don't see every day and those we do see often. The Candlelight program is going to be terrific. Your child looked great in holiday colors and performed wonderfully. Please watch for details concerning viewing the program on December 17th.

Kathy Church, Smithgall Woods' Interpretive Specialist, visited the K3 and K4 classes to teach them about Creepy Crawlies. The students learned about bugs, spiders, and snakes and even got to meet a hissing cockroach, a tarantula, and a milk snake.

Second grade went on a virtual field trip and “traveled” to Dahlonega, Ga, to tour the Historic Dahlonega Gold Museum in the old courthouse. See more photos below and on the school's photo gallery. 

Thank you for sending your child for us to teach each day. We are truly blessed to have wonderful students and parents at Lakeview.

From the School Counselor

Lower school and Middle school students wrote or drew a special note to either a veteran, first responder, military person or wounded warrior to thank them for their service.  These were part of Operation Gratitude and about 180 letters were sent out to be distributed.  Lakeview Academy is thankful for all the people that serve their community and their nation.
