The bus will be leaving Lindbergh School at 10:30 and arriving back at school by 2:30 p.m.

Students are welcome to leave with their parent upon returning to school or they can finish out the day.

Looking forward to a great trip!

Holiday Boutique (in November)

The basket raffle at the Holiday Boutique is one of the biggest fundraisers Lindbergh has.  The money goes directly to classrooms and teachers.

This year the Young 5 classrooms are working together for donations for our basket.  Before we pick our raffle basket “theme” we are reaching out to our young 5 families to see if any families may have a “big ticket” item to donate.

For example:

Do you have tickets to a sporting event or concert you would be willing to donate?

Do you own a buisness and would be willing to donate?

If you are interested in donating a “big ticket” item please email Ms. Schropp or myself.

Thank you!

Finishing Lunch

Students have a very short time to actually eat their lunch in the cafeteria.  Plus the cafeteria can be very distracting and loud for “little ones.”  Therefor I am letting the students finish “leftovers” in the classroom during our quiet time.  Feel free to pack a little something extra if you feel your students may need an afternoon snack.
