Hello MAS Families and
Welcome 2020! We have had a wonderful week back to school and getting
back into routines. We ended our week saying ‘Goodbye’ to this group of LHHS
buddies and we will welcome a new group in February.
Reminders:
Sunshine Program- As part of our student wellness, we will be starting
an early morning Sunshine program every Friday, beginning on Friday, January 17th.
Students in grades k-5 are invited to be dropped off between 7:20-7:30am
(Students will NOT be allowed to attend if arriving after 7:30am). Students
will enter front doors and go directly to classroom and put on indoor sneakers,
then head down to gymnasium. Students will be involved in an exercise and
movement program. At 8:00am students will be provided with a breakfast snack-
smoothie and nutrigrain bar, etc.
Chinese New Year- Again this year students will be learning about the
Chinese New Year. On January 24th we will be offering a Chinese
Lunch. Order forms will be going home today and are due back on Monday, January
20th. No late orders will be accepted. Also, please note that pizza
pre-orders for January 24th will be credited to Feb 7. So students
not ordering the Chinese lunch will have to bring lunch on this day.
Hot Lunch Order Forms- Hot lunch order forms for February will be going
home on Monday, Jan. 13. They are due back on Wednesday, Jan. 22.
Change in Student
Afterschool Plans-
Just a reminder and clarification that if you are changing your child’s
afterschool routine/day plan and know in advance, please send a written note in
communication bags. You can accompany this with an email to the classroom
teacher, however teachers often do not check emails until school day end. If it
is an emergency change in plans on the day of, please contact the office.
