LV Primary Parent News

Dear Primary Parents,

Last week, we were contacted by the company who was conducting our Field Day. Due to insurance reasons, they are not able to come to Texas. Field Day will still run for K-2 on April 11. Last year was the only year we had this company come. Prior to this, we ran our own Field Day with stations, bounce houses, etc. We are pivoting and bringing out our previous games and stations. Our students will have fun and that's what matters!

What this means? You no longer need to sign the Ninja permission slip. I have taken the link down. Coach Hodge will send out the parent information sheet with reminders about field day. You will need a visitors badge to attend, so be sure you send your name in for us to preprint badges and save you wait time!

Happy Easter to you and your family,

Mrs. Keck

Below you will find a list of school supplies for next year. Our PTO provides a service of prepackaged supplies. The supplies are delivered for Meet the Teacher night. There is no obligation to purchase the supplies prepackaged, we just like to give you the option.

LIBRARY LOOKS

April is School Library Month and we will have LOTS going on in our LVPS Library!

• If your child participated in the Schlitterbahn Waves of Pages Reading Program earlier in the year, the tickets will arrive in April and will be handed out then.
• April is Poetry Month
• April 22-26: Literati Book Fair. Flyers will be sent home before the Book Fair with details.
• The Literati Online Companion Fair is already open. Here is the link if you would like to check it out before the in person Book Fair opens

• April 29: We will begin asking our 2nd Graders their student numbers. They will use this number to check-out in 3rd Grade at the Intermediate Library. Students who know their number will get to pick a "spirit stick" to hang on their backpack!
• April 29 - May 9: Classes will have "Camp Read-A-Lot" during class Library time. If you'd like, you can send a little flashlight with your child to the Library that week to read great books in our Library campsites (not mandatory).

• May 9th: LAST CHECK-OUT for the year
• May 13th: ALL BOOKS DUE so that we can begin inventory.

Thanks for supporting our Library! It's been a great year of reading FUN!

Sincerely,

Krista Saulter

LVPS Librarian
