Week of Respect - October 1-5, 2018
Dear Lyncrest Families,
On behalf of the Lyncrest’s Character Education Committee and Safety Team, I would like to welcome everyone back to school.
Character Education is a part of our schools’ history and infused into the day to day operations. New Jersey State mandates that every school participates in a Week of Respect and an anti-violence week.
Our theme this year is #whatliftsyou. The What Lifts You Campaign is introduced to us by our new art teacher, Ms. Lauren Mandal. Its focus is on what lifts and inspires you. Students are working hard creating decorative feathers. Each feather will represent the student’s as well as Lyncrest’s positive attributes. These feathers will help create a beautiful wings mural which will be displayed in the multi-purpose room. When you visit our school, you are encouraged to take a picture of your child or yourself! Also, please use this as an opportunity to have a family discussion about what lifts each of you within your family. We are truly one together and there is power in respect.
In addition, we are kicking off our Week of Respect on October 1, 2018 with a PTO sponsored assembly, “Have a Heart.” During Respect Week we will have a dance party and participate in relaxation and gentle movement. Our now famous Respect Rally will be held on Friday, October 5, 2018, for staff and students only.
During our week of Respect, we are asking that students wear what is outlined below.
Monday 10/1 -Wear Red (Have a heart assembly, red shows caring)
Tuesday 10/2 - Dress as a Rock Star (Rock out for Respect)
Wednesday 10/3 - Wacky Wednesday, wear mismatched clothing (We are all different.)
Thursday 10/4 - Crazy socks (Sock it to bullying!)
Friday 10/5 - School Spirit Day, wear your blue and yellow (We are all together in being kind.)
If you have any questions or comments please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Deborah Donnelly/Social Worker
Peachjar ~ Electronic Flyers
Beginning October 1st, Fair Lawn School District will launch a new electronic flyer communication tool called “Peachjar.” To view school-approved Digital flyers, simply click the Peachjar button on Lyncrest's website homepage.
This “green” initiative will save our schools tons of paper and reduce copy costs by thousands of dollars. On top of that, posting school flyers in this electronic backpack removes a significant administrative burden from teachers, office staff, and volunteers.
No action is required on your part. You will receive a welcome email from our service provider (Peachjar) that includes a username and password. This is provided to give you the opportunity to manage your account and flyer delivery preferences. You do not need to login to receive or view school digital flyers.
To ensure smooth delivery of this communication, we suggest you add school@peachjar.com to your email contacts. When you receive your first eflyer, be sure to click “always display images.”
This system is used exclusively for distribution of school-approved flyers. Your email address will not be shared or used for any other purpose. Thank you for supporting our efforts to ensure parents are well informed about school programs, activities, and events.
