Yearbook News
Help us keep the tradition of yearbook alive! In order to do so we must hit our quota of 150 yearbooks sold. We currently have 80 orders. Yearbook is a big fundraiser for PTO. The profit made goes directly back to your kids :) We must hit our quota in order to profit and be able to continue the tradition next year. This year we chose to do online orders to keep the confusion to a minimum. If ordering via check or cash is better for you, please do not hesitate to contact LVESyearbook@gmail.com and we will accommodate you. Our deadline is fast approaching.

Counselor's Corner
Hello LVES Families! In our guidance lessons this month, students are learning about the character trait of Trustworthiness. Being a trustworthy person means you are honest, reliable, loyal, and deserving of trust or confidence. We will be discussing ways we can be trustworthy people at school and at home. Think of ways you can model trustworthy and honest behavior for your child in your daily activities.
“We learned about honesty and integrity - that the truth matters... that you don't take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules... and success doesn't count unless you earn it fair and square.” ~Michelle Obama
¡Hola familias LVES! En nuestras lecciones de orientación de este mes, los estudiantes están aprendiendo sobre el rasgo de carácter de Confiabilidad. Ser una persona confiable significa que usted es honesto, confiable, leal y que merece confianza o confianza. Discutiremos maneras en que podemos ser personas confiables en la escuela y en el hogar. Piense en maneras en que puede modelar un comportamiento confiable y honesto para su hijo en sus actividades diarias.
"Aprendimos sobre la honestidad y la integridad, que la verdad es importante ... que no tomas atajos ni juegas según tu propio conjunto de reglas ... y que el éxito no cuenta a menos que lo ganes justo". ~ Michelle Obama
