Message From the Principal
And just like that, it's November!!! What a fun week we had with our Fall parties! Thanks to everyone who volunteered their time or talents to make the celebrations fun for our students!
Next week our schedule is quite a bit different. We will have parent/teacher conferences on Monday evening and Tuesday all day. Due to conferences being held during the day, there will be no school for students on Tuesday. There will also be no school for students next Friday in observance of Veteran's Day.
The cold weather is upon us! We try to take the students out for recess and fresh air every day. Please help your student to dress appropriately. And if they are missing a coat, it's likely in our lost and found in the office! Please have them stop by to look!
Have a wonderful weekend!

November - LES Dine and Donate
READ TO FEED
The students of LES are participating in a Read to Feed initiative for our November Compassion Project. During this project, the students will be reading to support the L.I.F.E food pantry. Each child will be given a reading log where they can have their reading minutes sponsored for two weeks in November. Every little bit counts so they could be sponsored for a penny a minute, a quarter a minute or a general amount at the end of 2 weeks. You can even have your child total the minutes using their favorite addition strategy. The reading logs will come home from your child’s teacher, and the intended dates for the reading are November 6th-November 19th (however, this can be adjusted to your family’s needs). Their reading log and donations are due by Tuesday, November 28th. All donations will be given to the L.I.F.E. food pantry to provide food for local Loveland families. Checks can be made out directly to the L.I.F.E. Food Pantry. Cash will be accepted, and you can also click on this link or following the QR code to make donations online!! What a great way to give back to others during this time of year! Thank you for your support in helping a wonderful cause!
As an update, we were able to donate 310 books to Cincinnati Children's Hospital thanks to the new book donations and the coin drive that was held during the book fair. This was so exciting and a huge way that our schools were able to give back to the community!
Pass-It-On Food Drive
LCSD is in its 22nd year of partnering with the L.I.F.E. Food Pantry to fill Thanksgiving & Christmas baskets for at least 300 families right here in our own school district. This year’s drive will run Tuesday November 1st through Wednesday November 16th. Students can bring in their classrooms' designated donation item any time during these days. Thank you in advance for your generosity! Our efforts will help make wonderful holiday meals for some of our neighbors.
