📕 March is Reading Month 📘
Reading Night 📖
Reading Night was a success! It was great to see so many students and families. Students participated in activities, explored books, and spent time reading with friends, teachers, and family members. As always, the snack station was a big hit. Events like this help remind our students that reading isn’t just something we do at school, it’s something we can enjoy anywhere.
Thank you to all the families who attended and to the staff who helped make the evening possible.
Mystery Reader❓
Shout out to Mrs. Duits for taking time out of her busy schedule to visit and read to our students. Mystery readers help promote the love of reading and show our students that books can bring us together.
Little Vikes Club
Congratulations to our Little Vikes Club students for March. Keep up the great work!
Happy National Oreo Day🍪
In many ways, Oreos are a lot like our staff. The cookies are strong and dependable. They hold everything together, just like staff provides guidance and support. And the sweet cream in the middle? That’s like the care, encouragement, and kindness they bring every day that makes learning fun and meaningful.
Today, LECC celebrates its amazing staff, who help make our school a special place. Just like an Oreo, they bring the perfect balance that makes everything better!
