When placing an order after Picture Day with a Ticket Code a shipping fee will be added on and picture packages will be shipped directly to the home.

• Picture Retake day is Wednesday, October 11.

This is a night for parents to get to know the Lundahl and District 47 staff, curriculum, and resources available. In the newsletter that comes out on August 29th, you will be able to view the available sessions and talk with your child about their classes to know which sessions you would like to attend on August 30th. We hope to see you all there!

We love our pets and as cute as all of our Lundahl family pets are, dogs are not allowed on school property at any time. Please keep this in mind as you are picking up your children and attending school events (both in the building and at outside events). However, we would love your child to bring in a picture of them to share with us!

This is an excellent resource for both parents and students to learn about upcoming events at LMS including but not limited to: Sports Tryouts/Signups/Games, Club start dates, Activity Nights, After School events, PTO Fundraising events, etc.

• There is also a button at the end of each newsletter that will take you to the Daily Announcements page!

Our students are busy collecting ROARS for being responsible, respectful, and safe! One of the most popular ways to redeem their ROARS is using them to purchase items at our ROAR Store. We are reaching out to ask for your help stocking our store. You can send donations with your student or drop them off at the front office Monday-Friday between 7:15 a.m. and 4 p.m. Items needed include:

• Bulk candy or candy bars (fun size preferred)
  
• Gum (either bulk Hubba Bubba or small packs)
  
• Chips (individual serving bags)
  
• Takis (individual serving bags)
  
• Gatorade (smaller bottle sizes preferred)
  
• Gift Cards to Five Below, Starbucks, Target, etc. ($5 or $10 amounts)

PE Uniforms will be issued during PE class in the first week of school. The cost is $20 for a full uniform (one pair of shorts and two t-shirts). Purchase of a new uniform is not required if you currently have one. Uniform fees will be posted to your ParentVue account sometime in September and may be paid online via ParentVue or by cash or check.

Please remember that any medication that a student needs during the school day whether over the counter( Ibuprofen,Tylenol etc.) or prescribed must have the District 47 medication form on file in the health office. Students are not permitted to carry medication on their person during the school day unless an MD has approved this. The only medications recommended for self carrying are an asthma inhaler or an epinephrine pen for severe allergic reactions. Please click the link below to access the medication form, and feel free to reach out to the healtlh office with any questions regarding medications at school.

During morning arrival beginning at 7:30, students are expected to enter the building using their grade level door:

• 6th grade - Door 4
• 7th grade - Door 2
• 8th grade - Door 3
• Students who arrive after 7:40 need to enter through Door 2 (main entrance) in order to be signed in.

For the 2023-2024 school year, FastBridge testing will occur for all K-8 students during the window of Sept. 11 - Sept. 22. Click here for more information.

On Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, LMS hosts a homework club for students. Staff supervise students who might need a place to do work after a club ends until the activity buses leave at 4:10. Please note that this is a study hall environment until students from clubs and activities arrive at 3:30. At that point, it is a busier environment and not ideal to complete homework assignments. No advance sign up is required to attend, and students are not required to stay the entire time if they have made pick up arrangements to leave before 4:00. We encourage parents and students to discuss their after school arrangements in advance.

The intent in providing these activity buses is to enable more of our students the opportunity to participate in school activities, clubs and sports. Activity buses run on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays throughout the school year. Buses depart from Lundahl on these days at 4:10 PM.

Activity buses are available to any Lundahl student who has a regularly scheduled bus and remains at school until the departure time.

Click here to view our activity bus stop locations. Please note, drop off locations are not always the same as daily bus routes.

As new clubs begin, they will be added to our Clubs & Activities page on our website. We encourage parents and students to also check our Daily Announcements, which are posted on our website each day, to see what clubs are starting up soon.
