SPARTAN PHYSICAL EDUACTION

WELCOME BACK TO SPARTAN COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is my hope that all District 66 students and families had a great Summer!!! It seemed like only days between graduation and the beginning of our new school year!!

My Summer was filled with sport camps, baseball games of all levels, swim meets, and an occasional day of relaxation with all the Dodds!! Speaking of baseball, it appears that the beloved Cubs may actually hang-in-there!! What do they say...."Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while"!!!! Just teasing......as I know we have many Cub fans, including some at my house, in District 66, and "Good Luck" goes out to all of them!!

The '08-'09 school year has gotten off to one of the smoothest starts in recent memory. Our students have returned from Summer organized and ready to jump into our activities for the year! 7th and 8th grade has started Track and Field, while the 6th graders began with Field Hockey, Track and Field, and Flag Football!!

I would like to take this opportunity to wish the best of luck to all the Lakeview athletes participating in Fall sports. This includes boys and girls Cross Country, girls Volleyball, boys Football, and girls Cheerleading!! As always, our junior high athletes always represent Lakeview in a positive way, while preparing for their opportunities to compete later on in high school!

It is my hope to see many parents at the upcoming Lakeview open house (Tuesday; September 16th). As well, please feel free to stop by and observe your son or daughter in any of our Physical Education classes.

"Together.....We Will!!!!"

Have a Great Week!

Tom Dodd
