Mrs. Myers’ and Mrs. Bunn’s 4th graders enjoyed a fun brain break between lessons today. They had to work with a randomized partner and figure out how to get all the cups to fall inside each other while pulling both index cards simultaneously.

The Lakeside 3rd Graders were treated to a mini-concert by the Florida Chamber Music Project this week. The students heard the quartet play songs by composers like Mozart and Dvorak. Following the performance, students were given the opportunity to try playing a violin, viola or cello. It looks like we have some future string musicians here at Lakeside!

Mrs. Baker’s young historians traded their pencils for real charcoal to recreate the magnificent Paleolithic cave art of Lascaux!
Discovered in southwestern France, the Lascaux caves feature nearly 2,000 vibrant figures—mostly horses, stags, and cattle—painted over 17,000 years ago using natural mineral pigments and charred wood. By using authentic materials, our students got a hands-on taste of how Ice Age artists brought their world to life in the dark.

On November 3, Clay County voters will consider the renewal of the existing One Mill ad valorem funding for four years (July 1, 2027 – June 30, 2031).

Because this measure is a renewal of the existing operating millage, it continues current funding without increasing tax rates. Revenues are strictly dedicated to two operational priorities:

School Safety: Funding law enforcement contracts for campus officers.

Employee Compensation: Providing competitive pay to retain and attract quality teachers and support staff.

All expenditures are subject to review by an independent Citizens’ Oversight Committee. Visit oneclay.net/renewal for more information.
