Thank you to all LES parents, families and friends who came out to support LES 1st-5th grade students running the mile yesterday. LES students love to run! Please remember that pledge sheets for the Track-a-Thon Fundraiser for Track Renovation at Mettner Field are due in 12 days. Please help continue the strong tradition of USD 298 excellence in running for future generations.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at LES. 4th grade students from Mrs. Zamecnik's and Miss Berndt's classes decorated the main hallway Christmas trees today. Each ornament on the tree is for a LES student or staff member.

From Mrs. Pittenger
LES students will plan to run the mile on Thursday, December 2nd.
Sorry for the short notice but the temperature is supposed to be in the 70's so I wanted to get it done.
We will run on the west playground.
Parents and friends are invited to come and watch but we ask that you stay outside the fence.
The students will run at the following (approximate) times.
1A Mrs. Naasz 8:55
1B Mrs. Suelter 9:20
2A Mrs. Farney 9:45
2B Mrs. Habiger 10:10

Attn LES Parents/Guardians: LES is experiencing a high number of student illnesses, more than 15% of students are absent due to illness. Most illnesses have respiratory or stomach flu-like symptoms at this time. Please encourage students to stay at home if they are sick and wash their hands often. If a student is unable to cover their mouth and nose properly due to excessive coughing or respiratory symptoms, they may be asked to wear a mask to remain in school. Parents and guardians will be notified before this. LES is a mask optional building, but masks are encouraged for student and staff wellness. If you have any questions please call Mrs. Schmidt. Thank you for your continued cooperation in keeping students in school.
