Cindy Wise, Principal
Wise’s Words of the Week:
Greetings from Lake Street Elementary—home of the 4-Star Dazzling Dolphins Below is a lot of information and I would love it if you would take a few minutes to read it all. As we move into the school year, a few reminders are below to keep you informed about our safety procedures and a few programs we have here in the dolphin pool.
Safety Reminders: Please be sure to go through this list below and discuss with your child where appropriate.
When dropping off in the morning, please pull all the way up in front of our building and drop your child off on the far side of the crosswalk. PLEASE do not sit in this moving traffic line and wait for the bell to ring. If you want to park in the lot and wait, (which is fine) just remember the front crosswalk circle area is for mov-ing traffic only.
Always turn right when exiting our lot at BOTH arrival and dismissal times.
Cars on Lake waiting to turn in the lot should HUG the curb and USE your turn signal to show your intent to come into our parking lot.
Be sure to inform your child’s teacher if transportation modes are changing on any day. If you do call the office with last minute changes, please make sure it is before 3:00.
Walkers stay on the SIDEWALKS and obey all the crossing guards’ instructions.
Bus riders should remain seated and speak in quiet voices on the way to or from school.
***”Parker” parents, please enter the building to pick up your children. Do not wait out front and take them from the “car rider” line. Car riders will be outside waiting for you to pull up and load on the right side of the crosswalk as you are looking at the building.
Safety matters! Thank you so much for your help, support, and cooperation. We want all students to be safe and secure as they travel to and from school.
RtI letters will be mailed soon. Any dazzling dolphin receiving a letter will have an opportunity to enhance their skills 3 – 4 times a week with our RtI (Response to Instruction) team: Mrs. Amy Wignall, Mrs. Michelle Granskog, Mrs. Sue Fronek and Mrs. Pam Sorci. Placement of our students into this intervention is based on testing data and teacher recommendation.
Just a friendly reminder, if you come to have lunch with your child on the first Friday of their birthday month, please remember only one adult guest. We are a growing school and I appreciate your understanding with this since we want to make sure all our students have seats so they can enjoy their lunch. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Have a fabulous weekend, Mrs. Cindy Wise

The Ellendale walking path is for walkers ONLY. This path is not meant as a car rider pick-up zone. Please do not park along Davis Circle as this causes blind spots for the children who are crossing into Ellendale to go home and for the cars that are driving on Davis Circle. This is a potentially dangerous situation for students who are using the path to walk home as it was intended.
