May Recognition
May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander Heritage Month. The May timing corresponds with two historical milestones: the arrival of the first Japanese immigrants to the U.S. in May 1843 and the completion of the transcontinental railroad, in which Chinese workers played a pivotal role, in May 1869.

If you were at the district track meet in May, you may have noticed something new at Lakewood High School’s Dick Cardinal Stadium — energy-saving LED lights.
Thanks to funding support from Snohomish PUD and the Washington State Department of Commerce, we’ve upgraded our lighting system to cut energy use and save money — all while meeting goals set by Washington’s Clean Buildings Act.

What is a light year? To help students visualize this time-based unit of measurement, Science on Wheels staff introduced the “kid year” — the amount of time it takes one kid to run from one side of the gym to the other side of the gym. As fast as kids are though, no one could beat the light from a flashlight as the beam reached across the room.
Thanks to Science on Wheels from Pacific Science Center, our young scientists spent the day exploring space, meteorites, rovers, and planets. Each team faced real-world challenges like budget cuts and sandstorms, making for some impressive problem-solving.

Strategic Planning
We Are Lakewood
Thank you to everyone who took part in the survey asking for feedback on our draft strategic direction pillars, goals and indicators. The Strategic Planning Committee has been meeting to discuss each priority and brainstorm what each priority might look like for Lakewood. The committee will present a draft to the board in May.
