Your BiWeekly Update from Lilja Elementary School
IMPORTANT: DISMISSAL
PickUp Patrol is our system used to track dismissal plans and absences. For your child's safety, we MUST go by what PickUp Patrol says.
- If your child has a change to their default dismissal plan, be sure to make that change in PickUp Patrol BEFORE 2pm.
- The application cannot accommodate last minute plan changes, as the dismissal plans are emailed out to staff after the 2pm cutoff time.
- If there is an emergency, please contact Peg or Christie in the main office, otherwise we ask that you adhere to the plan listed in PickUp Patrol.
- Also, as always, please log all absences in PickUp Patrol as well.
Please note, 2:30 is our cut off time for parent pick up early dismissals. At 2:30 we begin our dismissal practices in the classrooms and have a high volume of student and teacher traffic. Given this, students need to be dismissed by parents BY 2:30 or they must complete their regular dismissal.

OPEN HOUSE:
We are so excited to welcome you to our Open House on Thursday, September 19th from 6-7pm. Please note, this event is for immediate family only. Students and their siblings are welcome, however, they MUST be under your supervision for the duration of the event. A few other notes:
- We offer early entrance from 5:30-6:00 for families who have a member that requires a sensory friendly event (low crowds/noise/movement)
- Parking is difficult: we strongly suggest walking or carpooling.
- All entry and exit must be through the Oak Street Doors.
Thank you for your support, we look forward to seeing you then!

STUDENTS SHOULD HAVE EXTRA CLOTHES:
Please pack your student a set of extra clothes to keep in their backpacks. Our building and school nurse does NOT have a change of clothes available for students who may have accidents or simply get extra enthusiastic during a snowy or rainy recess! We appreciate your help with this.
