Hunger Games in the library 
The Lakeridge library hosted an event on March 22 and 23 during Flex time to determine Lakeridge's tribute. Over 50 students participated in the event. The first stage was a Hunger Game Trivia Challenge, narrowing the field to 20 tributes. The tributes, with the help of their stylist made costumes for a costume parade. 12 tributes were then selected to proceed to the final elimination round of shooting targets, to determine Lakeridge's finest tribute. more...

After sixteen difficult rounds, Aria Gerson spelled "battalion" correctly to become our champion! Second place was Hannah Faulconer and third place was last year's champion, Isaac Morris. Aria will go on to compete in the Utah Valley Regional Bee on March 24, with an opportunity to go to Washington DC. We wish her the best of luck, and thanks to all who participated.
PTSA President's Message
 Good attendance is the “real” ticket to school success. Unexcused and even excused absences challenge any student’s success. Students who are frequently absent miss out on important lessons and hands-on practice that isn’t easy or practical to recreate. What’s more, junior high
school is simply mor challenging—and essential—than ever before. more...
