Dear LP Families,
On behalf of the entire LP staff, we'd like to take a moment to honor and thank the brave men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Specifically, thank you to our very own Steve Crocetti (Head Custodian) and Dan Dubock (Kitchen Manager). Their courage, dedication, and sacrifice have helped shape the freedoms we enjoy today. We encourage students and families to reflect on the significance of this day as there will be no school Monday, November 11th in observance of Veteran's Day.
However, before our long weekend begins we have a great night ahead! Tonight is our PTA Roller Skating party in the LP gym. Session 1 will go from 6:00pm to 7:00pm and session 2 will go from 7:00pm to 8:00pm. Thank you to our amazing PTA for putting together such a fun community event!
Finally, a reminder that our Fall Fundraiser pick-up is tonight from 5:00pm to 7:00pm. All orders can be picked up in our cafeteria! See you soon.
I hope you have a wonderful long weekend!
Dr. Bello

Parents/caregivers can attend our Artificial Intelligence (AI) Parent Information Night on November 20 at 6:00pm to learn more about what the district is doing to teach our students to use AI tools safely and responsibly. There will be a short presentation by our Director of Technology, Christine Osadciw and Instructional Technology Coach, Andy Cripps. Following that, parents and caregivers will be able to ask any questions they have, as well as talk with community partners we have invited to set up tables all centered around helping families keep students safe in both the online and physical world.
Please fill out this short form to let us know if you are interested in attending our Artificial Intelligence (AI) Parent Night and if you will need babysitting for your children:

We are proud to announce our first Fall PTA event! On November 8th, we are holding a Roller Skating party for LP students. Given the small space (LP gym) and the anticipated interest, we are going to hold two different sessions so that we can accommodate our families. Session 1 will go from 6:00pm to 7:00pm and session 2 will go from 7:00pm to 8:00pm. Please choose a session time that works for you and RSVP as soon as possible. This event will be for LP students only, no siblings. We are looking forward to seeing you all there!
