Mrs. Schable
Preschool and Kindergarten Registration
Thank you to all of the parents that have already registered their incoming Kindergarten students! If you have not yet submitted the paperwork, we need it in order to make staffing decisions for next year. Please call or stop by the office if you have any questions.
Thank you!
Mrs. Noveroske, our P.E. teacher, worked hard to organize the Kids Heart Challenge this year. The Reading Committee teamed up with her to encourage "Wellness Week." Everyday there were tips to encourage students to make healthy choices on announcements, student received a fruity smelling bookmark, and student got to do an awesome obstacle course during P.E. class. Our generous families raised $3,742.55 for the American Heart Foundation.
Mrs. Talbert is now working with Student Ambassadors to have a canned food drive for our local PAX center. We are working in conjunction with other LaPorte Schools to make a difference in our community. We appreciate your generosity in making our world a better place to live.
