Update on Lowell after-school enrichment classes

Update: We now have a whole page dedicated to describing Enrichment and Child Care options.

Watch for a Fall 2017 Enrichment Catalog in your child’s take-home folder. These after-school classes take place at Lowell but are provided by Miller Community Center and Seattle Parks & Rec.

We’ve been told that two pieces of information are missing from the catalog:

“Who you gonna call?”

~ Lowell PTA

Many thanks to everyone who came out for the classroom rug cleaning this week! And to the Safeway on 15th for donating the Rug Doctor machines and supplies.

The work went quicker than we thought (perhaps because it was fueled by doughnuts), and we even got to gear up with this sweet Ghostbusters-style vacuum. The number of enthusiastic thank-yous we heard from teachers easily outnumbered the rugs that we cleaned.

SO MANY BOOKS!

~ Lowell PTA

Thank you, Union Church and Kakao Chocolate and Coffee, for your amazing library fund-raiser/book drive! Thanks to you and everyone you inspired, the event raised $2,700—well over our target goal of $2,000. We will be able to buy all the books on our library list and have money in reserve for future projects dedicated to the library.

A big, big THANK YOU to all of those who came out and either donated, gave their time to volunteer, or helped to set up the event!

News on classroom assignments, supply lists, and staff updates

Check out the new artwork in the library! Thank you, amazing volunteers. We are grateful.

A bunch of helpful parent information was recently posted on the official school web site.  Quick takeaways:

  • student classroom assignments will be posted in the building on Tuesday, September 5, outside the office
  • supply lists have been posted as they’re finalized, all but 1st grade is up there so far
  • fidget spinners are on the banned list, i.e., “not permitted in the classroom”! 🙂
