Hayes Elementary Weekly Update
Hello Hayes Families,
We had such a joyful week at Hayes! Our Garden of Talents Special’s Night was a wonderful celebration of creativity and community. From vibrant artwork to musical performances, it was a night to remember. A special shoutout to our Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade students for their outstanding concert performances!
Thank you to Mrs. Salowich, Mr. Stromberg, Mr. Krueger, Mrs. Hussey, Ms. Lakatos, and all of the staff who helped make the evening such a success. We are so proud of our students and grateful for everyone who helped bring the night to life.
Next week, students will begin taking their final i-Ready Reading and Math Diagnostic Assessments. We can’t wait to see all the growth they’ve made this year!
Please take note of a few important upcoming dates:
-
Final PTA Meeting – Wednesday, May 15
-
Half Day – Friday, May 23
-
No School – Memorial Day – Monday, May 26
-
No School for Students – Staff Professional Development – Tuesday, May 27
Thank you for your continued support in making Hayes a great place to learn and grow.
Warmly,
Christine Broome
The LPS Education Foundation is again offering Star Awards for Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week 2025!
Are you looking for a unique way to thank a Livonia Public Schools staff member? A Star Award honors any LPS employee who has made a difference in a student’s, family’s or fellow staffer’s life.
For a $25 donation to the Foundation, a personalized, color certificate will be presented to your honoree, and they will receive recognition on the Foundation's website and social media platforms as well as the district's social media platforms.
The certificate will be personalized with your praise to show this LPS employee how much they mean to you!
Please click on the link below to send a Star Award to an awesome LPS staff member!

Donations received will be used to help fund the Foundation’s Grant Program so all funds will be going back into the schools to provide programs and supplies for our students and staff.
Thank you for your support! This is an ongoing fundraiser and Star Awards may be submitted at any time.
If you have any questions, please email lpsfoundation@livoniapublicschools.org
Morning Drop Off Reminder
We want to remind all families that students should not be dropped off before 8:45 a.m. There is no staff supervision prior to that time, and for the safety of all students—regardless of age—they may not be left unattended on school grounds.
We appreciate your cooperation in helping us keep all of our students safe. Thank you for your continued support!
