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.

We encourage our families to provide healthy food choices for meals and snacks.

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.

4th Graders Study Ecosystems
It is an exciting week in 4th grade! The class will be taking their very first field trip this Wednesday. They will be going to the UCLA Botanical Gardens and are very excited. They are finishing up their first project on ecosystems and can't wait to use their knowledge on their trip.

The 4th grade team also will have their very first POL on Friday. They've worked hard the last couple of weeks to answer the question "How can we as scientists prove the importance of consumers, producers, decomposers, and abiotic features to the preservation of our ecosystems?"

5th Graders Explore Nature
Our fifth graders enjoyed a fun, beautiful, and educational field trip to Descanso Gardens, where they enjoyed being among the trees, flowers, and other plants. Many of them saw deer, koi, turtles, and other types of wildlife.

This
Friday they will have their very first Presentation of Learning. These busy scientists have discovered some brand-new ecosystems on our planet and will be presenting their findings, complete with models they've created. Please stop by and learn something new about ecosystems!
