STAAR testing weeks are stressful to students. They rush to go over learned materials, and teachers take class time to prepare. Amongst all of this stress, it’s relaxing to attend a carnival.

Lakeview hosted their  STAAR carnival, it being full of food, fun, and educational games.

“It was a nice experience and took my mind off of STAAR testing, the educational games created a fun atmosphere,” sophomore Michelle Martinez said.

The educational games were a great mix to add because students became engaged in the games and had fun.

“I love carnivals, and hearing about a STAAR carnival got me excited and like going to it was tons of fun,” freshman Elizabeth Chastant said.
