Dear Parents and Families,
Happy Friday!  Indoor Recess, Friday the 13th and a full moon made this Friday a crazy one!  We all survived, and learned a bit as well so I am calling this a win/win. Looking ahead to next week, our school has decided to have  a Holiday Spirit Week. Monday will be plaid/flannel day, Tuesday is pajama day, Wednesday is Tacky Sweater Day and Thursday is Holiday Colors and Hat day.  Thursday is also our half day dismissal at 11:30.  Lots of fun scheduled for next week!  Have a great weekend! 

Sincerely
Mrs. Dina Knight

Dear Parents and Families,

Happy Friday!  Our week ended in a sweet celebration as we said farewell to our college intern, Ms. Allie McConnell. The kids and I will miss her terribly and we all were blessed by her bright smile and warm heart. She is going to make a wonderful teacher. Looking ahead to next week, Tuesday, December 10th is our field study at the school on mining and gemstones. This will be our next unit topic in science and what better way to kick it off than some gem mining!  If any parents are interested in helping here on campus, please let me know.  We need volunteers from 11:30 until 1:30.  If your student would like to bring in a small amount of money, there will be a small gift shop to buy items. On another note, our school kicked off our first service learning project. We are collecting items for the organization Sister Care.  Items in need for that organization are school supplies, board games, wash cloths, bath towels and paper towels.  If you would like to donate, just send in the items and I will get them to the appropriate place. Have a great weekend and I look forward to another great week with your student.


Sincerely
Mrs. Dina Knight

So this week had myself and the students feeling like the little engine that could, I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.  We are definitely ready for the upcoming Thanksgiving Break. We will begin to celebrate on Monday with some fun and yummy activities and the Ballet field study on Tuesday. A fun filled week !  Have a great weekend and thanks to all who sent in supplies!

Dear Parents and Families,

Happy Friday!  I want to start by bragging on my students who are members of our Chorus, they did a phenomenal job on their performance of A Kids Life!  I am so blessed to be the teacher to an amazingly talented group of students. I cannot wait to see more future performances! 
On another note,  this rain has been persistent and caused our class to have indoor recess four straight days, so I apologize if they come home a little wired.  Have a great weekend and I look forward to another great week at LCEU!

Sincerely
Mrs. Dina Knight

Dear Parents and Families,
Happy Friday! We ended our week in the best way possible way, by paying tribute to our nation's heroes, our veterans. The celebration ended with a parade in which students were able to cheer and show appreciation to the men and women who keep our country safe as well as their families who are heroes as well. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and I look forward to another great week here at LCEU!

Weekly Update for November 4th-8th, 2019

Dear Parents and Families,
Happy Friday!  Halloween is over and this teacher is tired!  All kidding aside, the students did a really good job of controlling all their excitement and remaining focused on their studies. Report cards came home today in communication folders. I am so proud of the progress our class is making and I am so thankful to have such supportive parents who help with studying at home and assistance with homework.  Looking ahead to next week, our Veterans Day Celebration will be on Friday, Nov. 8th at 7:45 in the Blue Wing on the top level of our school. There will be breakfast, chorus performance and parade.  If you have completed the RSVP form, please do so. The form went home in communication folders a few weeks back.  If you need another, please let me know!  I hope you all have a restful and enjoyable weekend and I look forward to another great week with your student!

Sincerely
Mrs. Dina Knight
