LECC TIGER TALK
LECC eNewsletter January 21, 2022
Hello LECC Tiger Cub Families!
I hope this email finds you well! Our Tiger Cubs transitioned well this past Tuesday after an extended time away from the building due to asynchronous learning days and being off for Martin Luther King, Jr. day. We appreciated your support during those asynchronous learning days. We are hopeful that the number of COVID cases impacting our families and staff is on the decline.
Looking forward to next week, our Kindergarten team will celebrate on Tuesday our January Tiger Cubs in the News, who have been going above and beyond with showing care, respect, and responsibility. We hope to share pictures of this assembly over our LECC Twitter page and in next week's Tiger Talk.
This week's virtual read-aloud is All Kinds of Awesome, by Jess Hitchman and Vivienne To. This story celebrates all the unique ways that we can be awesome and how our passions may lead us one day to a certain profession! I often played school in my parents' basement for HOURS growing up...may explain a couple of things now as an adult. Ha!
We hope you have a fabulous weekend. We will see our Tiger Cubs back here on Monday!
It’s a great day to be a Tiger Cub!
