Hello and Happy Halloween to all Linsford families,
It it great to be back and everyone is working hard to re-establish learning routines. It was wonderful to see many caregivers at our Halloween parade! I only have a few pictures to share as we still have a number of verification forms that need to be completed. These forms give us permission to publish photos. Congratulations to all of the grade 2s for getting theirs finished. Our office team will be calling and emailing all parents/caregivers until those forms are completed. Thank you in advance for your support with this.
Please note: You should have received communication from Black Gold that noted two changes to the school calendar. November 3 and December 1 are now regular school days instead of PD days. There will still be a fall break from November 10 - 14.
See details in our update about our Spirit Wear Store! Information will be coming very soon on parent teacher meetings and hot lunches! Thank you for your patience as we transition back into routine.
Warmest Regards,
Mrs. Kloschinsky & Dr. Murtha-Toles
LPS Admin Team

REMINDER:
YEARBOOKS
The yearbooks from last year will have a late fall delivery. As a reminder, we had to switch yearbook companies in the last week of June, which delayed our delivery. Our yearbook team has been working hard to change to the new platform. We hope you will be as excited as we are by the final product. Our yearbook final proof has been submitted and we will have a delivery date very soon! Stay tuned!
SCHOOL PHOTO RETAKES
*** Photo retakes will be done on November 25 in the morning (am) only.

There were so many great costumes once again this year! Thank you to all who participated in a super fun day!
