Lost & Found
In addition, we have quite the collection of prescription glasses in the office - swing by if your kiddos is missing his/her pair!
We make an effort to return everything that is labeled. Any remaining items will be donated after Friday, June 15th.
School Supplies
1. Between now and August 10th, visit www.boxofsupplies.com and order a complete box of your child's supplies online. 10% of your purchase comes back to the LCE PTC, your child's supplies will be delivered to school the week school starts with your child's name on the box, and you won't have to lug heavy supplies to campus on the first day(s).
2. visit our website and view our supply lists. You can shop on your own for supplies and bring them to school on the first day(s).
Top 5 Summer Enrichment Experiences
2. Spend 45 minutes a week on iReady Math and iReady Reading or Lexia; resist the urge to help your child - these programs are leveled to be a 'perfect fit!'
3. Go exploring - whether on a plane, in your car, or on foot...explore something new and talk about what makes it fun or memorable
4. Play games - games help to create flexible thinking and promote a growth mindset (losing is tough!); aim for face to face games instead of digital or computer games
5. Enjoy your family time - whatever that looks like for you, enjoy this time to reconnect with your child and celebrate what makes him/her special!
