LCES Families,

On Thursday, we hosted our last community meeting of the year to honor our students who received student of the month for creativity. Congratulations to all those students! We also got to see some of the great work students have completed in art throughout the school year.

Please remember that there is no school on Monday, May 29th in honor of Memorial Day. We do have school on Friday, June 2nd.

Naglieri Testing

Our 2nd grade students will be taking Naglieri this next week. This is a general ability test to screen for gifted and talented. Thanks for sending your child to school rested and ready to do their best work.

End of the Year Activities:

On June 13, we will be hosting a teddy bear picnic during lunch for our students. Please see the flier below. We are looking for donations of sheets or blankets to use for our picnic. If you have any extra or old blankets/sheets that you would like to donate, please drop them off at the front office. We appreciate it! Plan on joining us for lunch that day as well. Bring your own picnic lunch or purchase one from the school cafeteria for $4.50.

Join us on June 14th for our awards celebration starting in the gym at 1:00 followed by classroom celebrations.

Please continue to send your students with jackets and boots to go outside everyday. As we have a variety of temperatures and weather conditions, please note that we will continue to go outside daily. Thanks for sending your kids prepared.

Kindergarten Pre-Registration

Kindergarten Pre-Registration is open. If you have an upcoming Kindergartener who will turn five by October 1st, 2023, use the QR Code on the flier in order to give us your name and student information so that we can be sure to send out a registration packet to you in July. If you know of anyone in the community with kiddos who will be entering Kindergarten next year, please help us share this information.

If you have a student who is going into Kindergarten next year, join us on June 1st for our Ice Cream Social. We are excited to meet you and welcome you into our kindergarten community.

Parent Volunteer Opportunity:

I am in need of one or two parents who would like to be on our strategic planning team for the 23/24 school year. If you are interested in helping us create the goals the school will be working toward, please reach out to me at kpongrekun@lakecountyschools.net. We will host this meeting on June 9th from 9-3. Thank you!

We are excited to enter into the last three weeks of the school year. We have lots of learning to complete and some great end of the year activities planned. If you have any questions, please reach out to me at any time.
