Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. We have a few updates and some key dates and events to share.
PAC Meeting
Our third PAC meeting of the year was this past Wednesday and the minutes can be found here. If you have any questions/comments please email us at [email protected]. We will be taking a break in December and our next PAC meeting will be Wednesday January 17th.
Fall Fund ‘Tech’ Drive – Thank you!
We are happy to share that we raised $17,836! This is an amazing accomplishment and will allow us to make the technology upgrades within the classrooms and to fund the literacy programs teachers rely on. Thank you again for all your contributions!
Diwali and Future Celebrations
We received wonderful feedback on the Diwali celebration held at the school on November 15th. The kids learned a lot and were able to enjoy some great activities and food. Hopefully you heard all about it from your children. The purpose of the newly formed PAC Diversity Committee is to showcase and educate our community on the wide variety of holidays that are celebrated by the families at Livingstone. This PAC funded parent-driven initiative is available to any parent willing to take the lead and showcase their celebrations. If you are interested in sharing a tradition, festival, or celebration, please bring your ideas to us by emailing the PAC at [email protected] . There is a guideline/outline to follow and support will be available from the PAC and the school.
Family Dance - Thursday, November 30
Our family dance, “Let It Glow” will take place on Thursday November 30th. We are excited by all the interest of this event and tickets sold out very quickly. We apologize to those who wanted to attend. We are using this as a learning opportunity for future events! If you did get tickets, a reminder to make your pizza order too if you’d haven’t already. If you are unable to use your tickets, please consider 'gifting' or reselling at face value to a friend as this is a community event.
Parents Soiree Reminder and Volunteer Callout
Save-the-date for the Livingstone ‘soiree’: February 3, 2024 at Heritage Hall. This will be a fun night for parents to meet and mingle (this is a kid free event :)). To volunteer, please email [email protected] or sign up here.
Fun Lunch Volunteers Needed
To keep our Fun Lunch program going strong, we need some assistance with distribution. This is a 15-20 minute time commitment to help with distribution to the classrooms. All lunches are divided by class by the vendors, come by and say ‘Hello’ to your child! Their faces light up when they see their parent at the school in the middle of the day! And we also want to thank the parents who have volunteered their time so far. If you are interested in volunteering for any fun lunch or any other activities, please sign up here.
