iLEAD Lancaster Valet Service
 THE VALET LINE IS MOVING FASTER! THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE! iLEAD families: Please do not block the driveways of the businesses on K-4. We need to be good neighbors and keep their driveways clear. Thank you! iLEAD Lancaster has a convenient valet service for our families. In the morning: MORNING DROP-OFF BEGINS AT 8:00. Please enter Avenue K-4 from the west and pull in to the driveway at the west end of our school. (You'll see a valet attendant in a bright vest to direct you.) Drive around the back of the school where another valet attendant will open your car door and help your children exit the car. The learners will enter the building through the back door. Please do not park in this area. If you would like to come into the school, please park in our parking lot and enter through the reception area. In the afternoon: VALET BEGINS AT 3:00. Please enter Avenue K-4 from the west and pull in to the driveway at the west end of our school. Do not turn left into the driveway, as it blocks traffic. (You'll see a valet attendant in a bright vest to direct you.) Have your bright-orange valet card (available in the office) on the driver's side of your dash. An iLEAD staff member will read the last name written on your valet card and use a walkie-talkie to have your child come out to your car. We will be loading cars in the order in which they are parked. After picking up your child(ren), drive slowly out to the front of the school and turn right onto Avenue K-4. This will help prevent traffic congestion.
We thank you for your continued support of our valet system.

iLEAD Lancaster Health and Wellness Policy
We encourage our families to provide healthy food choices for meals and snacks. For birthday celebrations and other class celebrations, we encourage non-edible items (bubbles, stationery, pencils, etc.), or the donation of a book to the class. If families want to bring in baked items, we ask that parents choose treats listed in our Health and Wellness Policy or that are as healthy and organic as possible. Please speak to your child's facilitator prior to bringing in items for celebrations. We look forward to assisting our families in establishing and maintaining lifelong healthy eating habits.

iLEAD Sparkles
2nd Grade Cartographers Put Their Knowledge on Display On October 3, the fabulous 2nd graders were pleased and proud to present the first Presentation of Learning (POL) at our new facility. The learners answered the question "How can I, as a cartographer, represent the continent where I live?" They were thrilled to create their own maps of North America using imaginative materials.  Most little cartographers included the names of countries, the Great Lakes, the two surrounding oceans, and a compass rose. They also created a rip-art book of geographical nouns and a papier-mâché globe of the world. Parents were surprised at the many interpretations. The class's yearlong project "Read to Feed" with Heiffer International is going so well. Children read and are given change to bring to school to put in the cow bank. Five hundred dollars will buy a cow for a needy family/village in another country, and we're already at one hundred dollars! We may aim for a herd!
3rd Graders Create Communities
 Our 3rd graders have been working hard to prepare for their first POL. The driving question is "How are communities founded, and how do they change over time?"
The learners have just finished researching about urban, suburban, and rural communities. Also, learners are investigating about Lancaster and what it takes to be a good citizen.
 Learners were given the opportunity to work in small groups to paint a community with kindergarten facilitator Miss Kim.
We look forward to our POL, when learners will present a community they've created using various materials and innovation. Our POL is on Tuesday, October 28.
