PARKS & RECREATION AFTER SCHOOL
Parks and Rec will continue to offer FREE after school programming for Phase 2.
If you need after school care for your Lowell Bobcat, please sign up here.
Even if your child has been attending the after school program, you will need to sign up again using this link.
Parks and Rec asks that parents sign up at least 48 hour in advance. If you need to sign up within the 48 hour window or have other after school related questions, please email Alex Birrell at BirrellA@ci.missoula.mt.us
OPERATION LEVEL UP
Lowell's school wide goal is for all students to grow at least one level on the IRLA leveling assessment. To help your reader at home, we ask families to set aside 30 minutes every evening for reading. Students who read 30 minutes per day outside of school are shown to have higher reading levels and greater academic achievement than students who do not read outside of school. Let's work together to help all Lowell Bobcats level up!
