Halloween Reminder
Attention Parents of Bus Riders!
As you know, students moving between face-to-face and remote instruction is to be expected this year. The number of students riding our bus routes not only changes each 9 weeks, due to required periods of isolation and quarantine, ridership changes from day to day. Although we are working to keep pickup and dropoff times as consistent as possible, we ask that parents please prepare for buses to arrive within a 10-15 minute window on either side of the established pickup/dropoff time.
For more information on transportation services, including how to look up your student's bus route information, please visit http://www.lagovistaisd.net/page/transportation.home.
As always, we appreciate your patience and flexibility as we work to meet the needs of our students and families!

Counselor's Corner
Hello LVES Families!
During the month of October, students are learning about the character trait of Respect. In our guidance class lessons, students are understanding that respect can mean being polite and using manners, as well as respecting other people’s differences. Students will also learn about respecting themselves, as we promote Red Ribbon Week and staying drug-free.
Our LVES Red Ribbon Week Theme Days will be October 26-October 30!
Mon. “We’re REaDy to Be Drug Free!”- Wear red for the Red Ribbon Pledge Signing!
Tues. “Stomp Out Drugs!” - Wear your Western clothes and boots!
Wed. “Too Smart for Drugs!” - Wear your college shirt!
Thur. “We are Too Bright to do Drugs!”- Wear bright or neon colors!
Fri. “Team Up Against Drugs!”- Wear your blue & gold Viking spirit wear!
Let’s show our community how the Lago Vista Elementary School Vikings know how to respect themselves and others by pledging to be drug-free!
¡Hola familias de LVES!
Durante el mes de octubre, los estudiantes están aprendiendo sobre el rasgo de carácter de Respect. En las lecciones de nuestra clase de orientación, los estudiantes comprenden que el respeto puede significar ser cortés y usar modales, así como respetar las diferencias de otras personas. Los estudiantes también aprenderán a respetarse a sí mismos, mientras promovemos la Semana del Listón Rojo y nos mantenemos libres de drogas.
¡Nuestros días temáticos de LVES Red Ribbon Week serán del 26 al 30 de octubre!
Lun. “¡ESTAMOS LISTOS PARA ESTAR LIBRES DE DROGAS!” - ¡Vístase de rojo para la firma del compromiso del lazo rojo!
Mar. "¡Pisotear las drogas!" - ¡Usa tu ropa y botas occidentales!
Mie. "¡Demasiado inteligente para las drogas!" - ¡Ponte tu camiseta universitaria!
Jue. “¡Somos demasiado brillantes para consumir drogas!” - ¡Use colores brillantes o neón!
Vie. “¡Únete a las drogas!” - ¡Usa tu ropa de espíritu vikingo azul y dorado!
¡Mostrémosle a nuestra comunidad cómo los vikingos de la escuela primaria Lago Vista saben cómo respetarse a sí mismos y a los demás al comprometerse a estar libres de drogas!
COLLEGE DAY IS EVERY WEDNESDAY! WEAR YOUR FAVORITE COLLEGE SHIRT!
