Families Are Invited to Watch the LJES Halloween Parade Today
11:30 LJES Playground

Because Halloween falls on a 'short day' this year, it is fine for students to wear their costumes to school. Please remember these costume guidelines:  
  • Keep costumes simple, as to not interfere with classroom work.     
  • Please do not send costume props that are replicas of weapons (swords, knives, guns).Please also avoid gruesome costumes such as very scary masks, swirling blood, etc.
Families are invited to watch the Halloween parade today at 11:30 on the LJES playground. Be sure to allow extra time for parking.

Dear Parents,

A Federal Impact Aid Survey card was sent home with your child early this week. These cards are used to apply for federal funding for our school, and we need one returned for EVERY student. Please complete all of the questions on the card, sign and return to the school no later than Friday, November 9th. (All classes who have 100% returned by Nov 9th will be given an extra recess.)  All information will be kept confidential.

Thank you very much for your time and for helping us to obtain this valuable funding for our students.
