Please see the message below from the Ministry of Education about the parent Student Learning Survey.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
We want to hear from you! Please share your thoughts about your child’s learning by completing the BC
Student Learning Survey (SLS). This survey happens every year and helps us make education better for
all students in BC.

Why your opinion matters:
• It’s the only survey that asks parents across BC about their child’s learning.
• Your answers add to what students and staff share, giving a full picture.
• Results help identify areas of concern and guide improvements.
Please complete the survey by May 1, 2026:
https://www.awinfosys.com/surveyfull1/central/main/access_Parent.asp
• Available in 18 languages
• Takes about 30 minutes
• Voluntary and anonymous

Your responses are anonymous, securely stored in Canada, and not linked to your child.
Need help?
Call 1-866-558-5339 or email support@awinfosys.com
Thank you for helping us improve education for all BC students!
Sincerely,
David Hosick

During STEAM Week (January 26– February 2), Lakewood students will engage in a school-wide project titled “Lakewood’s Most Magnificent Thing.” Inspired by The Most Magnificent Thing by Ashley Spires and Adrienne Gear’s guide, students will explore the IDEATE, MAKE, and SHARE stages of the design process to create their own “magnificent things.”  Your child’s teacher will be sending out information, soon, as to what each student needs to make their creation.  This is a week long school wide event.
