Happy Fall!
The fifth-grade students will be starting the G.R.E.A.T. program the week of October 14th. This is a 6-week program for our students, which promotes positive life skills, respect, and anger management. We are so fortunate to have Officers Szmergalski and Brauch from the Lockport Police Department come to Ludwig each week to teach our students! The graduation for the students completing the program will be held on Friday, January 17th.
We will have a Fire Safety Assembly for all of our students on Oct. 4 in honor of Fire Prevention Month. The Lockport Fire Department will not only present on fire safety but be a part of our fire drill to ensure we are evacuating efficiently and safely.
Ludwig will have a week-long celebration during Red Ribbon Week (Oct. 21-25), which focuses on “Saying No to Drugs” with a variety of activities and drawings. Information will be coming home soon with our themed spirit days for each day that week!
Our Halloween Party will be on Oct. 31 with a parade starting at 8:45 am. If the weather cooperates, please join us outside on the south side of the building. Otherwise, you are invited to our gym while our students parade indoors. The parties will run from 9:30-10:30 am, as we have an early dismissal at 10:55 am. Please keep in mind that our wellness policy states that our parties remain SNACK FREE. Although Halloween is a fun time for our students, we must ensure that their costumes do not include any “weapon-like” items that could cause harm or disrupt the classroom. In addition, the students may wear their costumes to school on Oct. 31, but please make sure the costumes are “school appropriate.”
Family Math Night
Due to a scheduling conflict, Ludwig Family Math Night will be on WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23rd from 6-7:30 pm. Please make this change to your calendars. We encourage everyone to come dressed in a costume! This is an evening of learning, games, and fun! We look forward to seeing all of you!
