Lake Bluff Elementary School Family Newsletter
Hello Lake Bluff Families,
I hope everyone had a fantastic Spring Break! As you know, the week had many temperature fluctuations. Please make sure you listen to the weather daily to make sure students are appropriately dressed for Wisconsin's various temperatures. Something to keep in mind is that boots are important in all kinds of weather so students don't have wet muddy shoes all day.
As the weather gets better, we see more children playing on the playground before and after school. Please be reminded that we do not offer any supervision of students at those times.
Thank you and have a wonderful week!
Kind Regards,
Johanna French, Principal
