Hello Linsford families,
It was another very busy week at LPS! Students and staff have been working extra hard to finish our learning for the school year while trying to juggle all the fun events that pop up with the warmer weather.
Congratulations to all of our students in grades 3-6 who attended the Black Gold track meet at Riverview Middle School this past Friday. You represented LPS very well! The coaches would like to send out an extra special THANK YOU to all of our staff and parent volunteers who came out to support our students at the track meet. You help was greatly appreciated. Please see the track meet section below for lots of photos from the event!
This will be our last week to have library books signed out. Please help your child to find and return all library books! Thank you in advance for your support with this!
PS. Go Oilers!!!
Warmest Regards,
Mrs. Kloschinsky & Dr. Murtha-Toles
LPS Admin Team

JUNE IS PRIDE MONTH
CLICK HERE for a message from our BGSD trustees.
At BGSD and LPS, we are focusing on community building and the message: "You belong here - exactly as you are". This is an important message for all staff, students, and community members to embrace, regardless of each person's identity. We have, and will, continue to promote with our students, that we are all different, but we are all an important part of this community. We have also focused, and will continue to promote, how each of us is special and how we each have our own unique identities and talents. The LPS community is composed of a variety of different individuals and families and we strive to ensure our school community is supportive, safe, and inclusive for all. This requires the collaboration of a village to ensure we have a global, positive message of inclusion for all, and we appreciate the support from our parents and extended community in helping to promote an inclusive community for our children, parents, and staff!
BGSD TRACK MEET
LPS track students gave an outstanding effort in all of their events this past Friday at Riverview Middle School! Track meet results will be provided in the next couple of weeks and we will celebrate our students during a Friday assembly. Please enjoy a number of photos from the day or CLICK HERE to see even more photos! THANK YOU again to all who contributed to the success of this day!

LPS students created some special art to celebrate the upcoming National Indigenous People's day. The students then had an art walk to enjoy each other's creations.
