The LMS Lowdown
November 13, 2020
Principal's Message
It looks as though our country is going to face another wave of COVID-19. We hope to keep schools open as long as it is safe to do so. We will be following the guidance of the Burlington County Department of Health and the New Jersey Department of Education. It is so important for us to remember the basics of what keeps us safe: wear a mask to protect yourself and others, try to maintain social distancing of at least six feet, wash your hands often or use hand sanitizer and try and avoid large crowds (especially indoors). I know these solutions are not foolproof, but studies have shown them to decrease the odds of spreading the disease. With the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, please be aware of large gatherings. We wish you all the best and we hope everyone is safe.
Thanks,
Bud

FALL CONFERENCES
PLEASE HELP THE PTA ASSIST FAMILIES IN NEED
The Annual PTA Holiday Drive to help our local, less fortunate families began this week. An email with all details was sent out this week, and, for our Hybrid families, your students should be bringing home their adopted child's wish list this week or early next week. All New, Unwrapped Gifts and Clothes are due by December 11th. A link to all wish-lists, organized by home room, can be found here: Holiday Drive Wish Lists
The Loose Change Drive is also running until Nov 20th. All money collected will be used towards supermarket gifts cards for our families.
