Have you ever taken the time the think about the time and effort that goes into learning how to write letters correctly? Our K student are practicing writing letters correctly (top line to the bottom line) and how to use their finger spacing between words. The letter 't' seems simple enough but even those simple letters can be tricky!
Shout out to Chrissy and Ollie for setting the example for others through their behavior and work ethic. They are rocking fifth grade! Keep up the great work!

It's been a great week of learning and Paws-itive Office Referrals. These are our favorite phone calls to make! Keep being great leaders and role models Nevaeh, Ava, Gael, Austin, Alex, and Olivia!
Chromebooks will begin coming home this week! Some of our classes have already begun sending chromebooks home with their students. All others will begin sending them home this week. This is to get students used to the routine of bringing their chromebook home. Your child may not have any work to complete on their chromebook each night, but we still need to have students taking them home regularly so that it is available if the district were to need to call an NTI day for any reason.
Some parents have requested that their child's chromebook be left at school. We really need to send it home regularly as we never know when it might be needed. If you'd prefer, just have your child leave it in their backpack each night so there is no risk to forgetting it or so they are not playing on it at night.
THANK YOU to an amazing community team including CDF Builders, Inc., Lou Ann Moore, and Kim Greenrose Robarts, who put together some very appreciated resources for our students. These community partners donated supplies and money to support LJES students through the Family Resource Center.
Have you connected to your child's classroom through 'Rooms?' If you have not yet connected or if you are having trouble, check out the resource page created by the district to assist. https://www.bullittschools.org/o/bcps/page/rooms
