LES Spirit Night at Chick Fil A
Enter the PTA Reflections Program!!
The PTA Reflections program welcomes students of all grades and all abilities to explore their inner artist.
Reflections is a National PTA sponsored arts recognition program that encourages artistic expression. Submissions are due November 6th! The Reflections theme for 2015 – 2016 is “Let Your Imagination Fly”. Use your imagination to create a film, song, artwork, photograph, poem, short story or dance routine.
You may enter as many times as you like in as many categories as you like. Each entry must be accompanied by an official entry form. Be sure to reflect the theme in your work. New rule for 2015-2016: At least one parent must be a member of the Local PTA for advancement.
Please contact Jill Boyd at jboyd972@gmail.com with any questions.
· Rules, entry forms, and examples of past submissions are available at http://www.txpta.org/programs/reflections/
· Entry forms and rules are also available in folders outside the LES art room
Practice drills throughout the school year
We practice several types of drills at Liberty so in an event of an emergency our students and staff will know what to do. These are the drills we practice throughout the school year:
Fire Drills—completed monthly.
Duck and Cover-completed 2 to 3 times a year. This drill is practiced in case we are in a Tornado warning or Tornado watch for the area.
Lockdown-completed 2 to 3 times a year. These drills allow us to practice locking down the school in case of an intruder.
Our overall goal is to keep students and staff informed of what to do in case of an emergency with the hope we never have to put any of these drills in to practice.
Casey's Kids Run
Dear KISD Families:
We are a few weeks away from the 19th annual Casey's Kids Fun Run. This event is for all ages and all fitness levels. Even the 5k (3.1 miles) can be walked. Sign up the whole family and come out and enjoy the day together with friends and family, while contributing to a great cause- the students of KISD!
Casey's Kids was founded years ago by former director of counseling for KISD, Janie Casey. She recognized there were students who were only coming to school a few days a week because they did not have clean clothes. This run carries forward her vision to help KISD Students in need.
For a little extra incentive, we will be awarding The Casey's Cup to the school with the most participants. That includes "virtual runners." The winner will be announced at the awards ceremony immediately following the race.
See you there!
