The Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) is piloting three checkpoints for Grades 3-8 in the 2024-2025 school year. These checkpoints are a new component of the new LEARN through-year assessment for English/Language Arts (ELA) and Math, which will be given to all students in Indiana beginning in school year 2025-2026. Your child’s school will take part in the pilot program this year. The checkpoints will take place in Fall, Winter, and Spring. Each checkpoint has 20-25 questions and will show how your child is doing in key skills and concepts from the Indiana Academic Standards. This helps guide teaching and supports your child's learning. For more information about the ILEARN checkpoints https://content.govdelivery.com/attachments/INDOE/2024/08/15/file_attachments/2968554/ILEARN%20Checkpoint%20Guidance%20for%20Families%20-%20All%20Grades%20%285%29.pdf

Each month we discuss the Little Way. We take time to discuss one trait of the Little Way and how we can apply it to our lives at LF and beyond. This month we will be discussing

GOD IS FIRST

We will watch and discuss a video about the Good Samaritan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLzdQtetedc

We will discuss and practice ways to love our neighbor.
