MID-APRIL AND WINTER WEATHER

WHERE IS THE NICE SPRING WEATHER THAT SHOULD HAVE ARRIVED?????????

Our Physical Eduacation classes are ready to get outside, but this weather is messing us up!!!

Our units of soccer and badminton have been adjusted to fit an inside schedule, and I must say, our students have done a great job!!

7th grade classes are finalizing their two minute Step and Rope routines. Each student has chosen a group to work with, practiced the group routines, and will be graded this week on same!

As with our P.E. classes, Lakeview athletic team schedules have also been subjected to postponements due to the weather! All games / contests have been or will be rescheduled during the coming weeks! Good luck to Mrs. Wagner, Mrs. Wilson, Mr. Little and all the Lakeview squads!!

Congratulations go out to Mr. Tedeschi, Mr. Ohlsen, the Concert Band, and Cadet Band for their performances last Saturday at the Band-O-Rama in Justice, Ill. at Wilkins Jr. High School. The Concert Band received a Superior rating, while the Cadet Band received an Outstanding.

A final mention goes out to Samuel Carson III, Lakeview class of 2000. Samuel begins his final year of competition as a member of the University of Illinois football squad. Samuel had an outstanding scrimmage at middle linebacker last Saturday during the Illini's scrimmage at Lemont High School. The Fighting Illini kickoff their 2008 season on Saturday; August 30th vs. Missouri in St. Louis.

PLAY HARD!!!!
