What's the Buzz?

March is an exciting time in our school year as we move into the final stretch before spring. After connecting during Parent-Teacher Conferences, we appreciate the opportunity to partner with you in supporting your child’s continued growth. It is always encouraging to hear about the progress students are making both academically and socially as the year unfolds.

Our staff continues to focus on creating engaging learning experiences while maintaining high expectations for all students. This is a time of year when we often see students gaining confidence, taking more ownership of their learning, and showing the growth that has been building all year long.

As we look ahead, Teacher Appreciation Week in May will be a wonderful opportunity for our community to celebrate the incredible work of our teachers and staff. If you are interested in helping plan or support activities to recognize our staff during that week, please consider filling out the form below. Even small contributions of time or ideas can help make the week special for the people who invest so much in our students each day.

Thank you for the important role you play in our LBA community. Your partnership helps create the support system our students need to learn, grow, and thrive. We are grateful for your continued support as we head into the final months of the school year.
