Good afternoon, Lake Park Families. Please see the following reminders and updates.
1. Unity Day is tomorrow. Please allow your child to wear an orange shirt and jeans or uniform bottoms to show our commitment to kindness, inclusion, and standing united against bullying.
2. Next week is Red Ribbon Week. Use this link to view the dress-up day schedule. http://bit.ly/48Hqdxk
3. PTO's big fundraiser starts today. Our goal is to raise $10,000.00 to continue with our Outdoor Classroom/Garden updates. Your student will bring home their packet with registration details. We are asking ALL parents to pre-register their student(s) here: https://www.shopfund.com/parentregister LPES Group Code: BBUHA

Please get at least one person to support our fundraiser before our official kick-off day. Any student who is registered and adds 10 contacts will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win over 1,000 prizes. How cool would it be if we took a chunk out of our goal BEFORE the fundraiser even starts?

And even more exciting: You can win EXTRA prizes from the school, like a homework pass, a free dress day, or a PJs & Popcorn Movie party for the top-selling grade!

This October, we’re celebrating Bullying Prevention Month with the theme “You Belong Here.”
We’re helping students learn the power of kindness, friendship, and including others.
Ask your child: “What’s one way you made someone feel like they belonged today?”
Small acts of kindness make a big difference — at school and at home. -DCSS

October Friday Snacks
Happy Friday, Lake Park Parents! We had a wonderful parent meeting last night. I am sharing the slides for those who could not attend.
1. Georgia Milestones Information: http://bit.ly/46JUYjE
2. Annual Title One Information: http://bit.ly/46vgzeq
3. All In LPE Parents, presented by Soy Garvey: http://bit.ly/4gxmILT

We had our first lockdown / intruder drill today. Our students did an outstanding job. Procedures were taught in the classroom and reviewed on the morning show. We have an automated intercom system that reinforces procedures throughout the drill. We have completed two fire drills and one intruder drill this school year. Safety drills are scheduled at least once a month. Our students are learning to be proactive!

Have a wonderful weekend!
