Future Entrepreneurs

The 5th and 6th grade students at Platte Center Elementary enjoyed a weeklong entrepreneurship camp offered by Central Community College. Instructors, Mary Ann Humphrey and Doris Lux, taught the students what entrepreneurship was and the steps needed to become an entrepreneur. Students were put into groups and decided on a product to sell. They then made business cards and posters to advertise their product. Their product was sold to students, parents, and community members. Finding out each company’s profit/loss was the final activity. A special thanks goes out to Platte College for hosting this camp, as well as the instructors. Parents, staff and students were willing customers. Good job fifth and sixth grade students!

Cleaning Up Our Community!

The Secret Garden

Students were treated to live performance of The Secret Garden by Hampstead Stage Company. Frances Hodgson Burnett’s, The Secret Garden, is an enchanting story about a young orphan girl, Mary Lennox, who comes to live with her uncle in the English countryside. Through her curiosity and determination, Mary finds a garden, filled with memories, that has been locked for years. Her youth and enthusiasm breathe life into each character she meets, bringing love back into the family. Students thoroughly enjoyed the engaging performance!

The Day of the Children Fiesta

The Day of the Children was held on Friday, May 7. The event was a great success and once again the Lakeview Community Schools have come together to pull off a fun celebration. Thank you to all who came to share in the fun with your family, friends and neighbors. It was a night full of great food, games and prizes and of course lots of fun for everyone!
