"Kindness is contagious too!"

Happy World Kindness Day! When we asked our children what kindness meant they said, "Sharing, being nice, sweeping, saying thank you, helping mom..."


Students in Room 6 used magnetic math manipulatives to spell out the word "Kind". All week they are focusing on the meaning of kindness. Tomorrow, November 13th is World Kindness Day.

The District has been notified of 2 positive cases of COVID-19. It was determined that neither individual was in the school buildings during the period of time they would have been contagious. These cases emphasize the importance of testing, staying home when sick, and not masking symptoms with fever reducing medications.

Happy "Who Day"!
Lawrence UPK teachers read their favorite storybooks to their class this week and also uploaded a video of their story to share with other classrooms. The videos can be found in the news and documents section of the UPK page. Today they will dress as their favorite storybook character in honor of "Who Day"!



Continuing our purposeful play remote learning education. Children using household items to create letters, nature to create their names, illustrating their own pumpkins and learning the various parts of a pumpkin, as well as creating animals out of their favorite snack food! Great job UPK!
