Upcoming Events
During this season of Thankfulness I find myself reflecting on the many things I am grateful for at Lieder Elementary.
- Our incredible scholars who come to school ready to learn everyday.
- Our teachers who work incredibly hard to ensure students are growing day after day.
- The community for rallying around the challenges we have had, such as loss of transportation this year and finding a way to make sure students get where they need to be before and after school.
- Our administrative team that supports student learning and social-emotional needs daily.
This year in particular, I'm incredibly grateful for our updates outside of the school that were made possible by the fundraising efforts of this community along with our partnership with SPARK Park. We hope you can enjoy this upgrades as much as we do! Our next project will be raising money to provide a second shade structure on top of the other set of picnic tables behind the school.
You may have also noticed our beautiful new butterfly garden in front of the school. This was created in partnership with Cameron Loberg from Cy-Lakes and Troop 1283 for the planning, hard work and dedication to make this vision come to life for Cameron's Eagle Scout Project!
Let's continue to Shoot for the Stars in every way going into 2025!
