Lenski Weekly Update
November 10th, 2023
From the Principal's Desk
It’s hard to believe that we are just one week away from Thanksgiving Break! Our Lenski staff continues to be so grateful for each and everyone one of you!
We started this morning with a beautiful breakfast and presentation for our Veterans. Thank you to our amazing PTO for helping us fund the breakfast and coffee for our veterans. It was such a special way to start our Friday.
We will celebrate our last week before break with a spirit week! We also have our 2nd grade annual Pioneer Day coming up on Tuesday and our 2nd annual Thanksgiving lunch on Thursday. We love making memories with you and our Superstars!
Have a wonderful weekend!
With Lenski Love,
Jessica

Sock It To 'Em Annual Sock Drive
Welcome to the 5th Annual Lenski Sock Drive! November 27th - Dec 15th, 2023
Did you know socks are the number one clothing need for people experiencing homelessness?
Lenski is excited to partner with Sock It To 'Em, a local charity dedicated to serving the homeless. Our drive will benefit several Denver Metro organizations that serve our community.
Our goal this year is to collect 3,000 pairs of socks or 150 pairs per classroom! The class that brings in the most socks will get a popsicle dance party!
Please bring in NEW socks for men, women, and children. There is currently a high need for men's socks. Drop off donated socks in your classroom.
Let's make a social impact one pair of socks at a time!
Drop off your The Streets at SouthGlen receipts here.
