TIME IS FLYING BY !!!!!!!

I owe an apology to all my students, parents, colleagues, and just plain readers in general for going such a long period of time without "checkin' in"!!!!

7th and 8th graders have had a rocky unit what with the weather, and the inability to get outside for one reason or another. Have finished our week of golf with all students having a great time, one way or another at Ziegfield Troy!!! If this rain ever stops, we will be able to finish Track and Field!!

6th graders have finished their first rotation of Weight Training, Field Hockey, and Flag Football. My "footballers" did a good job on skills, and have now rotated on.

D.G.S. Football is also in high gear!! The varsity, with a number of Lakeview alums on-board is currently 5-0, with 4 conference games left before the state playoffs!! It appears that there will be a showdown in week #9 when the Mustangs travel to Addison Trail for the regular season finale! HIT HARD!!!!!!!

And finally, tomorrow evening; Wednesday, September 28th, the Lakeview Spartans football squad will take on the Eisenhower Generals ...... AT Downers Grove South ..... on the new turf field. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 PM, admission is free, and a GREAT crowd is expected!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have a GREAT week, and ...........................

GO SPARTANS......GO MUSTANGS.....GO HUSKIES......GO LEATHERNECKS!!!!!!!!

GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!!

September 11, 2011

As all the programming today honors the 10th Anniversary of 9/11/01, I would like to just state that we live in the GREATEST COUNTRY in the world, and the freedoms we have are due to those who made the supreme sacrifice so this freedom would be!!!!!!!

Lakeview P.E. classes are well under way with 7th and 8th grade classes working on Track and Field, while 6th graders have Flag Football, Weight Training, and Field Hockey!

Interscholastic athletics have also begun with great starts by volleyball. Football and Cross Country get under way this coming week!

On a final note, I hope to see ALL THE LAKEVIEW PARENTS AT OPEN HOUSE TOMORROW NIGHT (Monday; Sept. 12th) beginning at 6:45 PM in the old gym. Mr. Windsor and Mrs. Liles will begin with opening remarks, at which time parents will follow their students' schedule under an abbreviated amount of time (12 minutes)

Have a great week, and........................
