A Note From Mrs. Bowden....
Parents/Students -
Thank you for your patience this past two week's with construction at the elementary campus. The elementary campus was notified on Thursday that the City of Frisco will be tearing up the concrete next week in their carpool lane. Their morning drop off and afternoon pick up will be impacted again next week. Please make sure that you adhere to all of the traffic guidelines and we will have the Resource Officers out to assist with any issues.
Please play nice and be patient.
Thank you for your understanding.
With gratitude,
Mrs. Bowden

Earth Day Tree
Join us in celebrating Earth Week: Register your child for a free tree!
This spring, we are thrilled to announce our participation in Neighborhood Forest's 16th Annual Free Tree Program as part of our Earth Week celebrations from April 22nd to 27th!
Since 2010, Neighborhood Forest has mobilized over 2,000 schools, libraries, and youth groups, engaged over 500,000 volunteers, and given over 197,000 children in all 50 states (and 6 provinces in Canada) the opportunity to plant their very own tree.
Check out their 2024 Annual Impact Report!
We are excited to be participating in this wonderful program that teaches youth about the importance of environmental stewardship through the magic and wonder of planting and watching trees grow.
Please fill out the following online registration form by March 15th and receive a free tree (6-12 inches in size) during Earth Week (April 22-27). The tree species will be announced in early April. Neighborhood Forest aims to provide native and / or fruit bearing trees in all regions they serve.
Register to receive a free tree for Earth Day to plant with your child:
https://www.neighborhoodforest.org/parent-registration/?school=100521
You will also have the option to donate and/or purchase additional trees and tree-related educational products (via the registration form). Please note this is optional and any purchases/donations will help fund more free trees for kids in the program.
Trees will be delivered to us and we will arrange to get the trees in the hands of your children on or around Earth Day (April 22nd) either via pick up or sending home with your child(ren).
Other products that are purchased by you will be fulfilled by Neighborhood Forest.
Instructions on planting and caring for the trees, along with species details, will be emailed a few days before the tree delivery and will also be accessible in the “Resources” section on the Neighborhood Forest website. For further questions, please check out the Parent FAQs.
Thank you for your support and participation. For more information about this program, please visit www.neighborhoodforest.org or www.facebook.com/neighborhoodforest.
LPS is so excited to participate in this program! You can reach out to Lynda Delsol at ldelsol@lpsfrisco.com if you have any questions or would like to assist with distribution in April.
