Dear LP Families,
Please be sure to check out the 'Mark Your Calendar' section as I added important November and December dates to our calendar. I also added our Socktober week information so that you can get a head start on planning for that week's activities. Any sock, mitten, and/or glove donation will be greatly appreciated.
You still have an opportunity to sign up for a Parent/Teacher conferences if you haven't done so already. You will find the link below.
Finally, now that we are in mid-October, we are starting to see the 'honeymoon' period come to an end and student behaviors increasing. We would love your support in setting expectations for school. When students know their family and school are collaborating to help them be their best selves, it really does make a difference. We need help reinforcing safe bodies (hands and feet to themselves) and safe words (speaking respectfully to adults and other students). We appreciate your partnership!
I hope you have a great weekend!
Dr. Bello

There will be a short presentation by our Director of Technology, Christine Osadciw and Instructional Technology Coach, Andy Cripps.
