America 250: In honor of America's 250th Birthday, students in grades Pre-K through 12 are invited to participate in this district wide celebration through poetry, speech, song, dance, artwork, photography and essay! Deadline for students to enter is October 30.
At Lake Forest Elementary, we use Conscious Discipline to help students develop the social-emotional skills needed for success in school and life. Through daily practices and routines, students learn to manage emotions, build positive relationships, solve problems, and make responsible choices. These skills help create a safe, caring, and connected learning environment where every child can learn, grow, lead, and succeed.
