LWS Newsflash - September 16, 2022
PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
We had some beautiful weather and a great turn out for our 5th annual Color Run. Many thanks to the PTO all of the volunteers who made that event such a success.
Parent Teacher Conferences
We are entering parent teacher conference season. Our goal is that we will meet with all families in order to make sure we are working together to help our students learn and grow. Teachers will be communicating schedules and how to sign up in the very near future if they have not done so already.
In order to make it convenient for your family we will be offering day time, evening, and virtual conference options. Please work with your child’s teacher to find a time and process that works best for you. We will be holding conferences between now and the 6th of October.
PICTURE DAY is THIS THURSDAY (Sept 22)
School pictures will be taken on Thursday, September 22. HERE is the information you need to purchase pictures.
Log on to https://ordercp.com and enter our event code (10063501) to order.
