LECC TIGER TALK
LECC Newsletter- September 3, 2021
Happy Labor Day Weekend!
Hello LECC Tiger Cub Families!
I hope this email finds you well! LECC is finally complete! We have transitioned our Preschool students into LECC this week along with our Kindergarten Tiger Cubs. What a great feeling to have our LECC community here together learning and growing each school day!
Thank you to our parents/guardians who engaged, either in person or virtually, with our Kindergarten PIN event last night. Our teaching team members very much enjoy sharing out the cool things that make their classrooms unique and the great stuff your child will engage with this school year. Please reach out to your child's teacher if you have any follow-up questions! We will host our Preschool PIN event next Thursday, 09/09/2021 from 5:00- 6:00 pm. We appreciate your help in keeping this a parent/guardian-only event.
Please enjoy this week's story, The Very Busy Spider, by Eric Carle. We have had such a busy week here at LECC, just like the spider in this book! We are very much looking forward to a relaxing weekend to enjoy with our families and friends! Have a great weekend! Take care! We will see our Tiger Cubs back here on TUESDAY!
It’s a great day to be a Tiger Cub!

Updated Loveland City Schools Mask Policy for Students and Staff at LECC
Students in grades PreK-6 will be required to wear a mask indoors. Students in grades 7-12 will be strongly encouraged to wear a mask, but the parental choice will remain in effect. Our staff will be masking PreK-12.
A reminder that masks will continue to be mandatory on our school buses due to federal requirements for public transportation.

Car Rider~ Off to a great start!
- Please have your child ready to exit your car as you pull up to the designated drop-off zone. Students should have his/her mask on properly covering mouth and nose and backpacks on. This helps with a smooth transition from car to staff member greeting your child into the building.
- Adults dropping off LECC students must remain inside the vehicle at all times. For safety purposes, we will take care of getting your child out/into the car. If your child cannot buckle themselves into their car seats, please pull into a parking space and take your time fastening your child into the car correctly.
- We are unable to process early dismissals once our dismissal procedures have started at 11:35 am (half-day) and 3:35 pm.
Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our Tiger Cubs and staff safe.
