LCES Families,

Thanks for a great week at LCES. We have wrapped up Acadience Reading and have started our ACCESS testing which will wrap up next week.

Please remember to send your student with gear to go outside on a daily basis. If your student is missing something, be sure to check the lost and found.

Safety Reminder: Please use caution when walking through the parking lots and the snow and ice is present. We do have the main parking areas cleared by 7, but there is still ice that builds up.

Buckle Up Zone: If you are picking your student up in the parent pick up lane, feel free to stop between the green buckle up signs to get your student in a seat belt. Also, if you need a car seat or booster for your child, please let us know as we have some available.

HOWL’S Challenge Update:

We will be having a HOWLs dollar challenge for the month of January. The crew from each grade level that has earned the most amount of HOWLs dollars in January will get a popcorn and movie party reward on February 2nd. Please continue to encourage good behavior from your student each and every day and remind them of our 8 HOWLs: Collaboration, Respect, Responsibility, Craftsmanship, Compassion, Perseverance, Curiosity, and Creativity.

Parent Volunteer Opportunities:

Volunteers are still needed in order to help prep some curriculum materials for teachers. If you are able to come in to help, please reach out to the front office.
Would you like to come in and lead games/activities on the playground during recess? Reach out to Katie Pongrekun if you are interested in volunteering.

Literacy Night Planning:

Do you have an interest in helping organize and host our second annual Joy of Reading Literacy night? We are looking for several parents and community volunteers who are willing to be a part of the planning team. If you are interested in joining this team, please reach out to Katie Pongrekun at kpongrekun@lakecountyschools.net.

Thank you all for a great week. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

Katie Pongrekun
