Aloha Pep Rally - Wed, May 22
The Aloha Pep Rally is for students to say "Aloha" to our 8th grade class headed to Celina HS, as well as say "Aloha" to our incoming 6th grade class from all 3 elementary campuses.
The Aloha Pep Rally will start shortly after 9am. Please arrive by 8:55am to be escorted to the gym. The theme for that day on campus is Hawaiian so we encourage all students, staff, and families to partake in the festivities.
The band will not be performing since they have already turned in their instruments. We have one student playing the trumpet for the National Anthem so the choir will not be singing this pep rally.
If you are interested in coming to see your child(ren) perform, please fill out this form prior to Tues, May 21 at noon. You MUST fill out this form for each individual planning to attend. *Due to the high number of parents expected, we will not allow any parent to sign up past this date/time.
Any student that does not wish to attend the pep rally will have the opportunity to go to an alternate location, which will be announced the day of, to be supervised by campus personnel for the duration of the event.

5th Grade End of the Year Awards and Walk-Out
Thursday May 23rd, our annual 5th grade Memory Walk will begin around 2:00, immediately following 5th grade End of the Year Awards. At this time, our 5th graders and their teachers will walk through our hallways to commemorate our 5th graders' time at Lykins. Teachers and students from grades Kindergarten-4th will line the hallways to cheer our 5th graders on as they make their way into summer and soon, to middle school.
Instead of the regular 5th grade dismissal on Sunset Drive, our 5th graders will exit through the front doors of the school as they remember the way they entered Lykins many years or months ago. Our 5th grade parents are invited to gather at the front of the school to greet their children as they exit the building. This is a great time to take pictures and spend a few moments saying goodbye to Lykins. You may bring signs or banners for your 5th grader, but we ask that you DO NOT bring water guns, silly string, confetti, air horns, or anything else that would be disruptive to those around you. Also, 5th grade parents, please make sure you do not block our 1st and 2nd grade carpool lines.
Kindergarten- 2nd grade parents who usually wait in this area for carpool may experience some congestion so we ask that you are patient as our 5th graders exit.
5th grade parents, please plan to move along quickly so 1st and 2nd grade carpool can start.
We look forward to this new tradition and the memories it creates.
A Note From Our Nurse
If you child has medication in our clinic that will need to be picked up by May 23th. We cannot send any medication home with your child or keep it in the clinic over break. If the medication has not been picked up by this date, we will properly dispose of it. If your child is going to need this medication again next school year, you will have to bring it to the school at the beginning of next year and fill out a new form. These rules apply to both prescription and over the counter medication. Please refer to our website for additional information about medications, required forms, managing illness in school and our district policies.
Thank you,
Renata Fuller
