🇺🇸 Veterans Day at Lakeside Middle School 🇺🇸 Last Friday, we were deeply honored to welcome Veterans from the Nine Mile community to our school for a special Veterans Day assembly. Our talented choir and band filled the room with inspiring music, setting the tone for a truly memorable event. Students delivered heartfelt speeches that captured the spirit of gratitude and respect, reminding us all of the immense sacrifices our Veterans have made. We also shared hand-written notes and posters created by our students, which will soon be delivered to Veterans across Spokane to express our appreciation. It’s a small gesture to say thank you for their service, sacrifice, and the freedoms they have protected. A huge thank you to Mr. G., our leadership teacher and a Veteran himself, who orchestrated this powerful event. To all Veterans, words can never fully express our gratitude, but know that we are truly thankful. 🦅

Happy National Coaches Day! Today, we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to the incredible coaches at Lakeside Middle School. Your dedication, hard work, and passion make such a positive impact on our student-athletes every day. You go beyond teaching the game, instilling valuable life lessons in teamwork, perseverance, and integrity. Thank you for the countless hours you invest, from early mornings to late nights, for encouraging our Eagles to be their best both on and off the field. Your commitment doesn’t go unnoticed, and we are truly grateful for everything you do. Many don't realize the profound impact middle school coaches have on our athletes. While the seasons might be shorter, middle school athletics is the first time many athletes see this intense of competition or experience playing an organized sport. Who leads them, mentors them, and shows them what true sportsmanship looks like sets the tone for how athletes will progress on into high school and beyond. Coaches, you are an integral part of our Nine Mile community, and we are proud to have such inspiring role models leading our students. Thank you, Coaches! 💙💚 #NationalCoachesDay #LakesideEagles #ThankYouCoaches #EaglePride Feel free to adjust any details to make it more personal!
