The Lynnewood Loop

Hello Lynnewood Families,

Our students worked so hard last week on their PSSAs and we are so very proud of them! 3rd - 5th grade students will take Math PSSAs on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings this week.

I hope our Lions and their "special person" had a great time at the dance on Friday night. We can't wait for the fun of May Day this Friday night! Several teachers and I are signed up for the splash tower! The PTO is having a contest and the class that sells the most wristbands wins a great prize with books for the classroom library and three different gift cards to local bookstores!

This Week:

• Tuesday, 4/29 - Poem In Your Pocket Day!
• Math PSSAs for grades 3, 4, and 5 Tuesday and Wednesday ; Switched specials schedule Wednesday - Fridays mornings (1st and 2nd have specials in the mornings)
• Friday, 5/2 - Lynnewood PRIDE Day, Lions & Cubs and May Day!

Next Week

• See below for the full list of calendar activities as the spring is packed! Please note that I used BOLD type for events that were added throughout the school year.

We love this annual tradition! Our students showed off their skills and our teachers did too! We are so grateful that Jack Moyer's dad helped us out as our very official referee!

Students in grades 1 - 5 participate in our Make-a-Lunch Program where they make lunches to donate to those in need at the Life Center of Eastern Delaware County.
