The Zephyr Connection

🎨 Dot Day – Sunday, September 15 🎨

This year, we’re celebrating creativity, courage, and making your mark in the world!

For Students:
Wear Dots or Something that Represents You.

Decorate your Dot at school to show how you’ll leave your mark this year. Be bold—use drawings, colors, or words that represent YOU!

For Families:
Join in by creating a Family Dot at home! Wear dots (or something that represents you), add sparkles, or get creative together. Families can turn in their Dot to your student's Zephyr Time Teacher,

✨ Wear your dots. Create with confidence. Leave your mark. ✨

In honor of our beloved secretary, Keisha Harris, we invite all students and families to wear her favorite color purple. Keisha brightened every room she entered with her sparkles, glitter, and endless kindness—so let’s celebrate her life and legacy the way she would have loved.

✨ Wear purple. Add glitter or sparkle. Show kindness. ✨

Together, we’ll honor Keisha and the joy she brought to our Lombard family!

Lombard is ready to turn up the volume! On Friday, October 3rd, we’re celebrating Rock Your School 2025 with a spirit day full of energy, creativity, and fun.

Students and staff are encouraged to dress like rockstars or wear their brightest, boldest colors to show school spirit. Let’s fill the halls with music, excitement, and Zephyr pride!

The staff parking lot (highlighted red) to the east off of Locust St. is not open to pick-ups/drop offs in the morning/afternoon unless you have special permission. Additionally, the bus lane off of Lombard street to the West should be avoided.

This year students will only use devices at school. We are on eliminating screen time so students will not take chromebooks home this school year.

Students will need to wear their ID's during the school hours. If students are late to school or class, they will be using their ID's. Students also use their ID's for lunch. There is a 1.00 replacement fee.

In order to keep our school as safe as possible and to help staff identify individuals easily, students should not wear headwear with a hood, bill, brim or otherwise that would impede the ability to identify a student. No head coverings unless for religious reasons or for protective hair covering as approved by the Principal.

Students will receive lockers this year with an assigned lock. We will practice at school.

They may decorate the inside, but not the outside.

Students will eat breakfast in their homeroom. When students arrive at 7:15, they can start eating their breakfast. Breakfast is from 7:25-7:50 and then instruction will begin.

Students entering 6th grade must have a school physical and dental exam prior to the state of the school year.
