Weekly Events September 10 2021 -2022
Dear LP Families:
It’s been a busy, but great first week back. Lots of positive energy and excitement around the school.
Each week, we will send out an update for families with important information about things happening at Lambrick.
As we start up with extra-curricular activities and clubs, we thought we should let families know that we have Daily Announcements button on our school website. If your child needs a reminder about where and when try-puts for sports team are happening, or what clubs or activities are meeting, the Daily Announcements button can be really useful for you.
You can find the button on the left-hand side of our website
We are currently working on some virtual options to help introduce our school to parents and families. Save the date for our Welcome to Lambrick Family Zoom on the evening of September 23rd. More details to come next week about what this event is and how to register.
Class changes: Students have been asking for class changes all week and our office staff and counselors have been feverishly trying to accommodate student requests. Thanks for your patience and support as we work through these requests. Our hope is that we can complete all possible requests early next week.
Have a great weekend.
