LHS chemistry lab inspires student learning

Sometimes that light bulb moment actually includes a light bulb. Lakewood High School chemistry students geared up in goggles and white lab coats to explore the differences between ionic and covalent bonds.

Using beakers and conductivity setups, they ran a series of tests to see which substances could complete the circuit and make the bulb glow. Hands-on science labs help students investigate the world and build confidence, curiosity, and the kind of problem‑solving skills that stay with them far beyond the science classroom.

District awarded urgent repair grant to replace aging LES boiler

Lakewood School District has been awarded a $600,000 urgent repair grant from OSPI. This grant will fund the replacement of the school’s outdated boiler to improve safety, reliability, and comfort for students and staff.

The current boiler has served the school well beyond its intended lifespan and has required increasing levels of maintenance and repairs, often with parts difficult to obtain. The new boiler system will provide more reliable performance, improve energy efficiency, and reduce the long-term operational costs associated with maintaining an aging system.

Levy Update: New security fencing installed at CCE

Cougar Creek Elementary has a new layer of safety in place. Crews recently completed the installation of updated security fencing around the school’s play field, playground, and key campus perimeter areas. These improvements are designed to create a safer, more secure environment for our students while keeping our school grounds welcoming and accessible to our community outside of school hours.

This project was made possible through the voter‑approved Capital Improvements and Safety Levy (2025-2028). Your support ensures that we can invest in critical safety upgrades and facility improvements at all of our schools.

One topic they felt strongly about was keeping school bathrooms clean and welcoming for everyone. Their solution? A fun, student‑led competition that encourages responsibility and pride.
