Holiday Donations
Borchardt is collecting candies and small holiday prizes for our winter wonderland coming up on December 13.
We will begin collecting after the Thanksgiving break.
Spirit Wear Sales
The weather is getting colder, which means it's time for jackets and sweatshirts. Student council will be out front of school Monday and Tuesday this week selling spirit wear, including sweatshirts! Come and get yours before they're gone.
Attendance Matters
Attendance Reminder
This is our last two days for our November attendance challenge! Class winners will be announced on December 2 at Monday flag salute.
November Dress Days
School Lunch Menu
All Lodi USD students can enjoy a FREE nutritious breakfast and lunch every school day. That means no fees or meal applications required! Plus, the district-wide afterschool meals program is also no-cost.
UNIVERSAL FREE MEALS ensure that ALL CHILDREN get the nutrition they need to learn, grow, and succeed!
Early Checking out of students
Parents: We're sending a gentle reminder that we are not able to accommodate checking out students within 10 minutes of the end of the school day. Please be patient with our teachers and office staff as the children are dismissed.
