Welcome to Blakewood Elementary School!
5th Grade Camping Trip
Fifth graders spent Wednesday-Friday on a camping trip up north. The goal of the trip is to help our future sixth graders bond and begin the say goodbye to their elementary years. Thank you to Lakeview Principal Chris Sepersky who led the trip and to all of our staff and volunteer chaperones!
