Important Jamboree Updates
With one week to go, the Lowell Jamboree Committee still needs:
- about 10 parent volunteers during first and second shift of the event,
- about 15 people to bake something for the bake sale, and
- lots and lots of full-size candy bars for Candy Grams!
Please send candy donations and volunteer/bake sale forms to the office, or contact Brigid Coleman at djrocket@gmail.com if you can help. Thank you!
We look forward to seeing everyone there next Friday, February 28th, from 5:00-8:00 p.m. Along with all your favorite attractions from past years (cotton candy! popcorn! face painting!), there will be lots of fun new games, an artists' studio, two DJ rooms, a "kissing" booth, and a photo booth. Thanks to some of the Lowell staff for helping test out the photo booth--check out their fun photos!
To ensure student safety, please do not bring pets on school property during the school day, including arrival and dismissal. Thank you!
Looking for the Class of 2027!
Important Traffic & Parking Reminders
In particular, please note:
Keeping Driveways Clear- Please do not block the driveways on Willow if the pick-up line extends beyond the pick-up/drop-off zone. It is important that we are good neighbors and do not compromise people's access to their homes. In addition, tickets may be issued if police observe this practice.
Willow Parking Restrictions- Please be alert to parking restriction signs in the Lowell area. Wheaton Police and city engineering continue to monitor and make adjustments to ensure safety and smooth traffic flow.
Cut-Out on Illinois- Please only use this for a.m. kindergarten pick-up, p.m. kindergarten drop-off, picking up sick children, and dropping off items that will take under 5 minutes. Please do not stop with your car outside of the cut-out for safety and traffic flow purposes.
Drop-off & Pick-up Zone on Willow - Students should only leave and load vehicles in the fenced in lane for safety. Please do not let students out of cards outside of that area on Willow.
Thank you again for your understanding and cooperation!
Thanks for your support at Cook's Night Out!
