The Observation Deck

One week from today!

On April 17, "Electric and Eclectic: A District Showcase" will highlight the smorgasbord of opportunities and talented array of students in the Lakewood City Schools. It is a celebration of all that goes on in our schools!

Lakewood High will be transformed into a showcase of music and dance performances, art displays, interactive science stations, health and fitness stations, engineering demos, club displays and even a soup & salad bar in the Ranger Cafe. And that's just the start! The event runs from 5:30-8:30 p.m. and the soup and salad bar ($5) will open at 5 p.m.

Hope to see you there on Wednesday! Some of the activties you will find are cookie decorating with the Family & Consumer Science classes, jewelry making with our art classes, robot wars, game stations with our Ranger Athletes, samplings of foods from around the world, science experiments and much more!

Watching the early preparations for this event have been inspiring. Lakewood staff, from top to bottom, have a good deal to celebrate tonight. Please come join this forward thinking opportunity to share the awesome power of our students engaged in meaningful and authentic learning.

I mean no disrespect to the Punk history of Lakewood when I note that among the many bands performing will be the middle school jazz ensembles, which are pretty darned good.

Wonderful program tonight. The musical performances were top notch. We took a tour of the Ranger Cafe kitchen, it was impressive. The kids put in a lot of effort into all their displays. There is a ton going on at the high school and it was a pleasure to be able to attend tonight. Kudus Lakewood City Schools.

Great event. The clubs and organizations represented were fantastic. My kids all found groups of interest and are building excitement for when they are old enough to join.
