A huge thank you to the Lothrop PTO, families and community members for working together to provide a fabulous return of the Lip Sync Battle! Participants were still talking about it yesterday in the building.

The PTO will be holding a golf tournament on May 6th. If you are interested in registering, please see the information below and click on the button to access a printable form.

A huge shoutout of thanks to the current volunteers and officers of the Lothrop PTO. Lothrop Learners are supported well by the PTO each year.

In April there will be a number of officer positions up for nomination on the PTO Board and they are always in need of members to help out with fundraising efforts and organization of events.

Monthly meetings are organized according to the pleasure of the Board and can be held fully virtual or a combination of virtual and in-person.

If you are interested in becoming a member or an officer, please reach out to the team through Lothroppto@rnesu.org

As the snow melts, we are left with VERY wet playground and fields. If you are able, please send mud boots or extra shoes with your child each day until everything dries up. Thank you!

Lothrop has purchased a license for 2023-2024 for Happy Numbers. We will have access this year to begin using the program. Students can access this resource at home and at school. Look for your student's class code in their teacher's newsletter.

We are piloting this year and seeing how we can get the suggested 45 minutes a week into our schedules. Anything that you can do at home will be a huge benefit!

In an effort to assist families who are navigating illness and absences, the school nurse has put together the following guidelines. Please reach out to Melanie Parker, School Nurse if you have any questions or concerns.

Please keep your child home for at least 24 hours if they have:

1. Fever over 100.0 F (without Tylenol or Ibuprofen)

2. Vomiting

3. Diarrhea

Please also keep them home if they have:

4. Unidentified Rash

5. Uncontrolled Cough

{If your child requires Tylenol or Ibuprofen in the morning, it may be best to keep them home for the day.} If you are unsure of whether to send your child to school or not, please feel free to call the school and ask.

If your child has been absent for 10 days or more, the school nurse will be calling each additional day that your child is not in school. Absent days will be excused if:

1. a note from a medical provider is received or

2. a parent has spoken with the school nurse.

Volunteer to be a Girls on the Run coach for Lothrop School this spring! The impact of a Girls on the Run volunteer coach is as boundless as it is beautiful. The Girls on the Run programming is an after school program that uses a research based curriculum to empower, increase self-worth and spark joy in its participants.
