Lenox Elementary Newsletter

I cannot believe it is our last day of school! This year has flown by and I am in awe of all the students, staff, and families resilience and hard work. It has been an absolute honor to serve and support the Lenox community and I am looking forward to seeing smiling faces again in September.

We have spent the week celebrating all our students many accomplishments. Check out some of the highlights below including our staff vs. 6th Grade kickball game, field day, and Q4 PRIDE! Assembly. Special shoutout to our 6th Grade students, what an amazing group of scholars who will no doubt make an incredible impact on the world. Be sure to checkout the rainbow colored wall ball wall on our playground which was their legacy project. Just like them, this wall will bring joy for the years to come.

We wish you all a relaxing and adventure filled summer and we can't wait to see you next year!

If you ever have questions, suggestions, or wonderings, please do not hesitate to reach out to your child's classroom teacher, the office or me. Communication and connection are key to our success!

The Oregon Department of Education and Oregon Health Authority teamed up to provide all school districts in Oregon with free iHealth home COVID-19 test kits for students (each kit contains two tests). Those kits have been received in HSD and will be distributed to students over the course of the next few weeks. Please be watching for a test kit to come home with your child!

Also, the Federal government recently announced that U.S. households are eligible to receive an additional eight free at-home tests at COVIDTests.gov—bringing the total number of free tests available to each household since the start of the program to 16.
