Today we learned some martial arts with Master Dan. Master Dan owns a local martial arts studio and also wrote a children's book about a little mouse that takes martial arts. The children enjoyed hearing his story and then getting some exercise while participating in Budo the Mouse brain breaks. You can find Budo the Mouse movement activities on youtube!
On November 13th, we celebrated World Kindness Day. We talked about ways we can be kind to others such as holding the door open for someone, smiling and helping clean up. We took the Kindness Pledge and signed it with our handprint.

Pre-K had a great time at the Fall Festival ! Children got their hand or faces painted, chose a pumpkin, went shopping for apples and explored the inside of a pumpkin. They also played in the spider web playground, used leaves to create pictures and hammered pegs into pumpkins!

Congratulations to Lawrence Soccer and Coach Lagasse.
Today we received a special visit from the Inwood Fire Department! Children learned about the equipment and tools that firefighters use to help keep us safe. We also learned about what to do in case there is ever a fire. Children held some of the equipment and walked through the truck. Ask your child about what they learned today!
Yesterday we remembered the events that unfolded on September 11th, 2001. We focused on the community helpers and all the brave people who helped during a tough time. These helpers are heroes who work to keep us safe such as firefighters, doctors, police officers, and nurses.
Hello Lawrence Families! We are off to a smooth start and look forward to a great year ahead. Please use this link to review important school safety information. https://secure.smore.com/n/r27s5

On behalf of our Board of Education, district administration, building administrators and district faculty and staff, I would like to extend my gratitude and appreciation to the Lawrence community for approving our 2024-2025 budget and capital project propositions. With this budget, we can continue to provide the highest quality education our students deserve.
Together, we are investing in our children's future and giving them the skills and knowledge they will need to succeed in their future endeavors and wherever their passions and interests may lead them.
Thank you for your trust and commitment to our schools and our students. We are looking forward to the final weeks of this academic year and to another year of growth and success in reaching wildly important goals !
