Well it's May 21st, and this year is winding down.........and what an interesting year it has been. More looking back in my blog next week!!
A week ago Thursday night, I had the pleasure of attending the Lakeview presentation of "FIDDLER ON THE ROOF". What a performance!!!!!
With over 100 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students involved in all aspects of the play, you would have thought you were seeing it first hand in New York. As I said in my last blog, I had the privilege of seeing parts of the play during their after school rehearsals. To see it all come together without a single hitch ..........although Miss Bermann said there was at least one each night (which I didn't catch)...........was a true pleasure!!!!!! Due to the age of our students, I am unable to mention names, but don't really want to unless I could mention all 100!!!!!! TO ALL 100 ....GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!
Once again, Lakeview students demonstrated how diversified they are in MANY aspects of "life" outside the regular school day!!!!!!!
WAY TO GO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My final "cudos" go out to Mrs. Wilson and the GIRLS SOCCER TEAM. The Girls completed their season undefeated, and for the third year in a row, were Southeast DuPage Elementary Athletic Asoociation CHAMPIONS!!!!!!! With this third straight conference title, Mrs. Wilson is being mention up there with the "Bobby Bowdens" and "Don Nehlens" of the coaching fraternity>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>WAY TO GO MRS. WILSON !!!!!!!!!!
I hope everyone has a great week, and an even BETTER stretch run to "The End"!!!!!
GO SPARTANS................PLAY HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CATCHING UP !!!!!!!!!
May 9, 2012
Oh my gosh, where do I start to catch up??? !!!
Our P.E. classes are doing very well, despite the TERRIBLE weather we have had this Spring! Our 6th grade classes have had to make activity adjustments due to the need to stay inside during the last three weeks. They have adapted well, and are working very hard at the alternate activities we have done! GREAT JOB!!!!
Spartan Spring sports are rolling along, with different degrees of success depending upon the sport!! Boys Volleyball (Miss Cerney) concluded Saturday with the conference tourney, Girls Softball (Miss Nyhlen), Girls Soccer (Mrs. Wilson), and Boys Soccer (Miss Schwenkel) are headed down the "homestretch"!! BEST OF LUCK TO THEM!!!!!
On a totally different venue, the Lakeview theatre group has worked very hard during the last six weeks, preparing for their presentation of "FIDDLER ON THE ROOF". This Thursday (May 12), and Friday (May 13) mark the two-night performances of this GREAT musical. If any of our community are free either night, please make a point to attend. Both nights open at 7 PM. In having an opportunity to witness bits-n-pieces of rehearsals, I must say that Miss Jennifer Berman and Mr. Brian Ohlsen have fine-tuned over 80 students in preparation for opening night!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!!!!!
On a final note, I would like to personally wish the Lakeview alumni who are members of the Downers Grove South varsity baseball squad "Best-Of-Luck", as they conclude their regular season, and begin state playoff competition. Chris Eberhart, Brett Bialek, Kyle Engel, T.J. Dodd, Josh Rone, and John Holakovsky begin state tourney play on Thursday; May 26th at Hinsdale Central High School vs. either Bolingbrook or Oswego East. GO MUSTANGS!!!!!!!
Have a great week, and ...............................
