What We Did This Week:

We reviewed rules, expectations, classroom procedures and friend problem solving after our long winter break.

January is mostly assessment. I am assessing the students on reading tasks, reading levels, math tasks and report card goals.

Report cards and a progress report will come home the week of January 20th.

I will also be placing new practice tasks, books and activities (depending on the student) in their take home bags.

Thank you for your patience!

Happy New Year!

Lindbergh is proud to have earned both Blue Ribbon and Lighthouse status this year! None of this would have been possible without each and every member of the Lindbergh community flying the spirit of success together. For this reason we thought it would be nice to have new shirts made to show our Lindbergh pride! Please complete the order form if you are interested in any of the items and return it to your child’s classroom teacher with the correct amount in cash by Tuesday, January 14, 2020. All shirts will be in the color royal blue to symbolize our prestigious Blue Ribbons status! 

Order forms will be sent home in student folders and extra forms are available in the office.

Thank you to all of the families who helped volunteer or donate items for our Holiday party. The students had a great time!

Thank you also for the generous gift. I look forward to using them over winter break!

Wishing all of the Young Five families a restful and peaceful winter break.

Ho Ho Ho Lindbergh staff and families!
Just a quick reminder that gifts for our Adopt-a-Family program are due at end of day Monday December 16.
Please place gifts in the bins or give gift cards to Ms. Pina in the office. We will be collecting them after school.
Please remember to wrap all gifts (gift cards in envelopes are fine) and place original tree tag on the gift.

Thanks again for everyone’s generosity. Lindbergh continues to be amazing… Every. Day.

Happy Holidays to you and yours!
