Happy Thanksgiving
We have made it to our first holiday break of the 2020-2021 school year! I know that this has been an unprecedented school year with challenges along the way, but I am grateful for the support that you have shown our teachers and staff. We are so thankful to have amazing families at Lago Vista Elementary School! I hope you take this Thanksgiving break to reconnect and recharge as a family, so we can come back ready to finish out the first semester on a strong note.
In light of the rising COVID-19 case numbers in and around the state and nation, we ask that families of any student participating in face-to-face instruction be mindful of participating in higher risk activities or social gatherings over the upcoming holiday breaks. We urge parents to help students uphold mask-wearing and hygiene practices and to monitor their students for any symptoms before sending them back to school.
I wish each and every one a very Happy Thanksgiving!
Love,
Mrs. Jackson

Hello LVES Families!
Our character trait for the month of November is Giving.
People are giving when they do kind and thoughtful things for others. Children are understanding that people can be giving even without spending money, because giving kindness, compliments, or doing thoughtful things for others can mean so much to people, and make people very happy. Since we wrapped up Include Someone Week, it would be a great reminder to our kids that sometimes the greatest gift you can give someone is to simply include them. :)
Since the weather will be getting cooler, if your child, or someone you know, needs a coat, please email or call me and I will be happy to find one! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving break!

¡Hola familias de LVES!
Nuestro rasgo de carácter para el mes de noviembre es Dar.
Las personas son generosas cuando hacen cosas amables y atentas por los demás. Los niños comprenden que las personas pueden dar incluso sin gastar dinero, porque dar amabilidad, cumplidos o hacer cosas reflexivas por los demás puede significar mucho para las personas y hacerlas muy felices. Ya que terminamos la Semana de Incluir a alguien, sería un gran recordatorio para nuestros hijos de que a veces el mejor regalo que puede dar a alguien es simplemente incluirlo. :)
Ya que el clima será más fresco, si su hijo, o alguien que usted conoce, necesita un abrigo, por favor envíeme un correo electrónico o llámeme y estaré feliz de encontrar uno. ¡Que tengas un maravilloso descanso de Acción de Gracias!
