Children who will start kindergarten in the 2025-26 school year can apply for Lakewood’s free, full-day Inclusive Transitional Kindergarten program, which is scheduled to begin January 31, 2025.
This program will provide a strong educational foundation for kindergarten. Students must be 5 by August 31, 2025. The priority deadline to apply is December 20, 2024. The class is open to all students living in the Lakewood School District attendance area. The class will have approximately 17 openings.
Lakewood's Board of Directors was one of 37 boards from around the state recognized with a 2024 Board of Distinction award from the Washington State School Directors’ Association (WSSDA).
Lakewood Superintendent Dr. Erin Murphy said, “I am honored to work with such an amazing group of dedicated community members. Our board of directors is truly committed to serving the students, staff, and families of our community and works tirelessly to provide guidance and support to our district.”
Lakewood High School leadership teamed up with the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office to "Fill the Squad Car" with food for the Marysville Community Food Bank.
The school has collected about 200 items so far and is hoping to collect more before the drive ends on Nov. 20.
The cold couldn't stop Lakewood School District Transportation staff and other volunteers from hosting “stuff the bus” to support our local food banks for those in need.
In total, "Stuff the Bus" collected 3,696 pounds of food and $123 for Arlington and Marysville food banks.
FFA competed in the District FFA Jamboree in November.
Students tested their knowledge of milk quality (1st place), potato evaluation (3rd place), food science (3rd place), and horticulture (3rd place). Overall, Lakewood High School FFA placed 8th out of 14 schools.
Lakewood High School was awarded a certificate of accreditation from Association of Educational Service Districts during the Nov. 13 board meeting.
This peer-review process helps schools discover their strengths and promotes ongoing school improvement. During the six-phase process, LHS families and students met together with the school and accreditation teams to analyze progress toward meeting schoolwide goals.

Strategic Planning
We Are Lakewood
Thank you to everyone who took part in the survey asking about our community's three strategic priorities outlined in the Lakewood Compact. The Strategic Planning Committee met on October 29 for its first meeting to discuss each priority and brainstorm what each priority might look like for Lakewood. The committee will request additional feedback from families and our community in March.
