Hello Families,

Life School Red Oak families, I cannot believe this is my final Thursday Exchange Newsletter. For the past 10 years, I have been so incredibly blessed to be at this campus. The students, family, and staff at Life School Red Oak are truly one of a kind. I have loved seeing your children grow both educationally and in their character. Thank you for partnering alongside me as well as the staff to ensure that your children have an amazing educational experience. It truly takes all of us to support our students and help them grow into LifeLeaders. These past few weeks have been extremely emotional thinking back on my time here at Life School Red Oak. I am incredibly blessed to have worked alongside so many wonderful families who have shown me nothing but love, appreciation, and support. I hope you and your children have an amazing summer, get all the rest, and have all the fun. I cannot wait to see you at events in the upcoming years. I won't be too far and I'm excited to still stay in contact with my Life School Red Oak families. Thank you for all the love, support, and appreciation you have shown me over the past 10 years. I am eternally grateful.

District LifeLeader Newsletter

Click here to view the May LifeLeader Newsletter. In this edition, you'll find information about Summer Meals, Graduation, Athletics and Fine Arts accomplishments, Advanced Academic opportunities, summer camps, LSEF Golf Tournament, Life Christian Academy Pre-K, and more. If you have not already, please follow our new @LSPartnersforLife Instagram account.

• We are excited to see you on Parent Orientation on Thursday, July 30th from 5:30-7:30. This come and go event is a wonderful time to briefly meet your child's teacher and visit our various stations around the building.

  Stations:

  • Meet your child's teacher and drop off school supplies.
  • Medication & Immunization Drop Off: This is an opportunity for you to drop off your student's immunization records or medication to the nurse's office.
  • Hang Tag Forms: Be sure to fill out the Student Pick-Up Authorization Form and get your Hang Tags before the first day of school. Please bring your driver's license and the driver’s license numbers of anyone who may pick up your student during the school year.

As we begin summer break, we hope you take this time to rest, relax, and make wonderful memories with your families. While enjoying the summer months, please continue to keep safety in mind.

Be extra cautious around water, as children can drown in only a small amount of water and should always be supervised. Please also remind children to look both ways before crossing the street and ensure younger children are accompanied by an adult. During outdoor play, make sure children are wearing appropriate protective gear, such as helmets and pads, and encourage them to stay aware of their surroundings while practice stranger safety.

We have truly loved watching our little leaders grow this school year and want to help ensure they stay safe and healthy over the summer. We look forward to seeing their bright smiles again on August 3rd!

Have a safe and wonderful summer!

Upcoming News You Can Use

• For our outgoing 6th graders, please ensure your child has received their required Tdap and Meningococcal vaccines before entering 7th grade.
• If your child experienced vision difficulties during the school year, please join us for our upcoming Vision Clinic on 7/30. If your child receives a prescription during the clinic, glasses will be provided a few weeks later at no cost. More details coming soon!
• If your child is currently behind on immunizations, we will also have an Immunization Clinic on 7/30. This will be a great opportunity to help get them caught up before the new school year. More details coming soon!

• LSRO will be partnering with Children’s Health Telemedicine to offer telehealth services for the upcoming school year. Please stop by their table on 7/30 to complete consent forms and learn more about the Tytocare device that may be used during visits.

This year, you modeled what it means to belong to a community.

Citizenship isn’t just something children learn at school. It’s something they watch you model every day.

This year, YOU showed up!
You partnered with teachers.
You encouraged your child to take responsibility.
You spoke with respect.
You supported your campus community in ways both big and small.

And your child was watching.

They saw what it looks like to belong to something bigger than themselves. They learned that being part of a community comes with both privilege and responsibility.

When you volunteered, followed through on commitments, asked how you could help, and reinforced character at home, you were teaching citizenship in the most powerful way possible — by example.

You made a difference this year. Our Life School community is better because of you.

Please stay connected with us this summer through @LSPartnersforLife for continued encouragement and simple ways to keep developing LifeLeaders at home.

It’s not just school. It’s Life.

LifeLeader School Rules - Growing Leaders of Character

We invite you to partner with us by asking your child how they are demonstrating these school rules both at school and at home.
