Dear Lawrence Brook Elementary School Families:
Thank you for your support of our Week of Respect activities! It was wonderful to see the enthusiastic participation of so many students. Students learned steps they can take to promote kindness in our community such as being self-aware, communicating respectfully, and responding respectfully. Students also participated in an outdoor story walk of the book I Promise, and then brainstormed with their peers how they can carry the lessons they learned with them into the rest of the school year. This week truly emphasized how kind and respectful our LB students are, and I am sure the lessons and themes they explored will continue to resonate.
This week, students in grades 1 through 4 will participate in our annual Fire Safety Assemblies hosted by the East Brunswick Fire Department. Additionally, the Scholastic Book Fair begins on October 12 and Walk to School Day will take place on October 18. During the school day on October 18, students will participate in the PTA sponsored TALEWISE assembly, a fun, interactive and educational S.T.E.A.M. presentation.
Have a wonderful week, Lawrence Brook community!
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Dunn
Principal

Students participate in a Story Walk of "I Promise" to reflect on ways they can show respect inside and outside of school. | Each day, students engaged in lessons about self awareness and effective communication--these tools help us to show respect with words & actions. | On Friday, students worked together as a grade level to brainstorm how they can continue to prioritize respectful behavior throughout the school year. |
