LCIS SNSO 1-19-20
Dear LCIS Families,
The week was busy with testing, snowshoeing and safety practice. We completed our winter session of ANET testing. This assessment helps our teachers create a better plan for instructing the students going forward. It is a great tool for future learning. Our 6th Grade Snowshoe Leadership days were a great success! Ms. Beery’s class patiently waited until Thursday morning to go outdoors since the weather didn’t cooperate on Monday. We were also able to practice our evacuation skills on Thursday! Due to the construction of the ramp to the back doors of the gym, our alarm system was activated. Our students and staff were right on top of it! We were able to evacuate and have full accountability in four minutes. Practice really does make perfect!
Our third graders continued their studies of the 10th Mountain Soldiers who trained at Camp Hale. The students were able to get some hands on outdoor experience by doing some Army Training at the Community Field. It was so awesome to watch their real-world understanding grow! Thank you, Mr. Hanger, Mrs. Hanger and Ms. Page for making this possible!
Beginning this week, we will be conducting Access Testing for students who speak English as their second language. This will only affect selected students and should cause minimal interruption in the classrooms.
The LCSD Cheerleaders will hold a Cheerleading Clinic on January 25th for ages 3 and up. The clinic will take place at the High School Gym from 9-11 am. Please see the attached flyer for more details. Go Panthers!
February conferences will take place on February 11th and the 13th from 4-8 and on February 18th from 10-6. We will send out the Flash Appointment Link soon!
