Hello Everyone! If you had the opportunity to attend the Lindbergh Haunted House, I hope it was an enjoyable time with your families. I was able to see some fun costumes working in the food area. Maybe you had the chance to enjoy some yummy candy too!

A little bit of a slow week this week. There are no big schedule announcements.

As the weather is changing, please dress your child according to the weather. We will still try to go outside in the morning, lunch, and afternoon.

Please remember to bring the reading bag to school each day. I will be sending a alphabet chart in their bags tomorrow. Please read the books and word cards each day. On the alphabet chart practice the letters and sounds. On the back please practice the first two columns ( marked with a star) dolch words.

On Thursday October 31, 2019 will be having our Halloween Party from 9 – 10 AM. Children can wear their costumes to school and then after the party change into regular clothes. We will parading the school hallways at 9:00. More information to follow this week in their folders.

We will start using a learning computer program called RAZ KIDS. You will be able to use this in school and at home. I will be sending home a note to tell you more about the program and will be collecting $6.00 per student for the subscription.

Greetings Lindbergh Families!

Our 47^th annual Lindbergh Holiday Boutique is on deck!  For those of you who are not familiar, the holiday boutique is a PTA sponsored event that hosts crafters from all around Michigan to come in and show off their homemade goods.  We also have a limited kitchen open (which offers halal options), our infamous and biggest bake sale of the year, and this is also where we raffle off all the class baskets you all have been working so diligently on.  The event is a huge proceed generator that goes right back to all our phenomenal teachers to use for their students and classroom needs.

We need volunteers galore to make this event a successful one! Our teachers have already begun to sign up to volunteer.  Please consider volunteering and take a look at the sign up genius below to see which volunteer position would be the best fit for you.  

Personally, I want to thank you all in advance, sincerely.  This event couldn’t come together without all the helping hands we have here at Lindbergh. I truly appreciate our school village.  And spread the word! This craft show is a great place to find holiday gifts and such as the season is approaching. If you or anyone you know would like to place a lawn sign to advertise for our event, please reach out to me at the contact listed below, as well if you have any other questions or concerns, or need any further assistance.

 THANK YOU!!!

Kind regards,

Hello Everyone… Please remember our Field Trip to Three Cedars Farm is On Monday October 14, 2019. We will be boarding the bus and leaving for the trip at 9:15 AM. If you are a chaperone for our trip please sign in at the office and meet me in our classroom. Remember no parents are riding the bus. When we leave to get on the bus, you can follow the bus or meet us at the farm.

Please dress your child according to the weather. We will be outside for majority of the day. Let’s hope for NO RAIN!!! Also, remember gym shoes or boots. Play clothes and no dresses for the girls.

Also, please pack a lunch in a bag that can be thrown away. I don’t want to lose a lunch box or special water bottle. A brown paper bag, ziploc bag, or a grocery bag would be perfect with your child’s name on the bag. Remember a healthy lunch… sandwich, fruit, snack, and a small treat and something to drink like water or a juice box.

Hopefully ( inshallah) we will have a fun and safe trip. I have never been here before, so it will be a brand new experience for me too!

Have a nice weekend and see you all on Monday!

Miss Schropp

I hope in October that we don’t have to move any clips!!!! On that note… I need your help. Please Please remind your child to listen to the directions the first time. Remember the rules we established on the first day of school, and use an inside level 1 voice. We have been very very loud lately. I hope the noise levels start to ease up or I might start wearing ear plugs!!! LOL. I appreciate your help!
