A letter from Ms. Dandelet
Conferences are on the horizon!
Did you know that Level Up Academy historically has a high turn out of families attending conferences? Let's keep our tradition strong by continuing our commitment to communication between school and families. Thank you for making this a priority!
For those of you who are new to LUA, or those who would just like a refresher, conference sign-ups will take place online. You will receive an email from Leslie Sieleni, our office manager, next week with a link.
As always, priority scheduling emails are sent out to families with three or more children with the intention of allowing these families to schedule consistent blocks of time. Next, families of two students will receive the link, and so on. Please remember, it is important to sign-up right away to confirm the times that work best for your schedule.
And, as always, students are welcomed and encouraged! It's never too early for students to have a voice and share the story of their learning successes and challenges with a team of adults who care. Thank you for being a part of your child's educational team!
Fall Conferences will take place on Monday, November 19th in the morning and evening. Specific time slots are between 8 am-Noon and between 4 pm-8 pm.

Art In Action
We are happy to announce our Art In Action program can now begin! We recently received our art supply shipment from California which includes all art supplies necessary for an exciting and comprehensive K-8 art program. For more information, reach out to your child's teacher to understand when these art lessons will be taught. Here is the link for more information about this awesome art program - Art In Action - At LUA we agree that "Every student deserves art!" As a reminder, Level Up Academy is the recipient of a scholarship from Art in Action - giving our students and teachers access to this curriculum and materials for free this year. Thank you, Art In Action!
Spirit Wear Sales are on!
A Highlight from our Student Handbook!
This month we are focusing on LOST AND FOUND at LUA because our lost and found bins are overflowing. We always set out tables with lost and found items during conference times for your family's convenience. We highly suggest putting names on everything - these items always find their way back to their owner!
Here is the description in our handbook:
"A Lost and Found area is located in the school office. Your child should check this area for lost items. Any items that are found should be turned into the office. Be sure to check for lost items at conference times and at the end of the school year. To help avoid losses, put names on all clothing, shoes, lunch boxes, and school supplies. Unclaimed items are donated to our clothing closet at the end of the school year."
