Letter from the Principal
Dear Lions Park Families,
It is hard to believe It is almost October! We have had six full weeks of learning and fun with your children!
Our October PTO meeting is Monday night in the Lions Park lounge at 7pm. Please see the PTO newsletter below for more information.
We will have vision and hearing screening next week for second grade (both vision and hearing), third grade (hearing only) and all students with IEPs (Individualized Education Plans). Please have your child wear his or her glasses to school if they are being tested.
We look forward to the PTO Spirit Week leading up to the Roar and Run! The event itself will be held outside weather permitting. Families are welcome to attend if we are outside, but we will be unable to accommodate spectators if we have to move it inside. The Spirit Week dress suggestions are below.
Monday, Oct. 2nd-Pajamas Day
Tuesday, Oct. 3rd-Sports Day (wear your favorite sport clothing or colors)
Wednesday, Oct. 4th-Wacky Day
Thursday, Oct. 5th-Crazy Hair
Friday, Oct. 6th-Spirit Wear (wear Lions Park Clothing or blue).
Lions Park will have Parent and Teacher Conferences on November 1st, 8:05-3:35, November 9th from 3:40-6:40 p.m. and November 16th from 3:40-6:40 p.m. The electronic sign up will go out on Monday, October 2nd at 2:00pm. We value this opportunity to share celebrations and areas for growth for your children, to hear from you how things are going and to answer any questions you may have.
As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.
Warmly,
Katie Kelly
Principal
Lions Park School
