LCES Parent Update 3/18/2022

LCES Families,

We have made it to Spring Break!  I hope that everyone has a wonderful week off.  We are looking forward to seeing everyone back on March 28th. 

Through the month of March, we are having a crew card challenge.  Students can earn a crew card by showing one of our Habits of a Learner: Respect, Responsibility, Perseverance, Craftsmanship, Compassion, Curiosity, and Collaboration.  The class at each grade level who earns that most crew cards this month will earn a movie part with Mr. Stenzel and Mrs. Pongrekun!  Here is where the classes are at as of now:

We have a K-3 Concert coming up in May.  Please see below for details on how you can help support your students preparation for the concert:

LCES concert practice at home: Concert May 3rd!

Since the students are not in music often, I have created online classrooms for them to use at home. This will enable the children to practice our concert songs any time at home. There are two classrooms, one for kindergarten and one for 1^st/2^nd grades. This will ensure that we have a great concert. Below are the links. You may be required to ask to be invited. If so, just click that and I will make sure you have access. If you have any questions, please email me at bmoffett@lakecountyschools.net.

 Reminders:

• At dismissal time, please remember to wait until all 7 buses have pulled into the pick up lane before driving into the lane.  This helps ensure that we have a speedy and safe pick up process. Thanks so much for your help and support with our dismissal process. 

Mark Your Calendars:

• March 21-24: Spring Break, No School
• March 31: March Community Meeting 8:10-8:40.  Parents are welcome to attend!

Rockies Rock 2022!

Dear families,

With spring fast approaching, the GOL! team is working hard to bring you another awesome summer of Rockies Rock Adventure Camp. We write to share some important dates and updates  to this summer’s program.

Important dates:

April 18th – Open enrollment begins (there will be a two-week open enrollment period)

May 2nd – We will start confirming admission and filling spot

After much discussion and consideration, we will be shortening camp by two weeks to better align with the LCSD summer break. This new schedule will make it more possible for LCSD staff to work at camp, thus helping us address a camp staff shortage. The resulting four week schedule will allow us to put our best efforts into creating magical experiences for your kiddos, while also providing LCSD staff with some much-deserved time off.

Rockies

Rock 2022 Schedule:

Session 1:

July 5th – 14th (due to the July 4th holiday, the first week of camp will run

T – Fr)

Session 2:

July 18th – 28th

We appreciate your understanding and support, and hope this announcement gives you ample time to plan your summers accordingly!

Best wishes,

and warm thoughts of summer,

The GOL! Team
