Hello Lopez Families,
A big congratulations goes out to our 7th grade boys track and field team for winning the Meet of Champs. They competed against the best of the best and took home the overall trophy!
I also was able to see the NEISD Night Gallery displaying the artwork from all of the schools. If you have never been, you need to go. It is one of my favorite events of the year and I am always so impressed by the talent of our students. Way to go Lopez Art!
Have a wonderful week!
Sincerely,
Mr. Wernli

Edible Book Festival
Friends of NEISD Libraries (FONEL) is very excited to sponsor the 2nd Annual Edible Book Festival on May 6th from 2:00 - 3:30 p.m. at Madison High School Library. The Edible Book Festival is an opportunity for book lovers, book artists, and food lovers around the world to gather to celebrate the devouring of words on pages and the literal ingestion of culture.There will be family fun for all ages with the judging of edible book creations, a photo booth, a baking inspired break out session, cookie decorating, cupcake liner crafts, and face painting! There will also be some great silent auction items, including a large canvas print by local photographer, Joe Chidgey, Whataburger basket with Whataburger for a year, Scholastic Book Fair Literacy basket, plus some librarian created baskets.
Participants can create an "edible book," which can be inspired by a favorite tale, involve a pun on a famous title, or simply be in the shape of a book (or scroll, or tablet, etc). All entries will be exhibited, judged, and documented. Photographs of all edible books will appear in the Edible Book Festival gallery. All entries must be 95% edible - toothpicks, straws, skewers, and other support materials are admissible. Creations also must survive at room temperature and will not be refrigerated. Find full submission rules and register your edible book creation today by visiting the FONEL website.

Synergy - Working together
By synergizing, we learn to value each other’s differences and celebrate our diversities. We are all different, and we are all good at different things. We must celebrate the ways that we are different and honor the greatness in each of us, as we are all special in our own way.

Parent Mr. Miller gave part of his day off as a guest speaker on the topic of Texas Oil. Mr Miller worked in the Oil Industry for many years. He shared aspects of fracking and made Texas Oil history come alive for the Texas History students at Lopez.
