Liberty Weekly Update

 

📅  Viking Pride

As Teacher Appreciation Week comes to a close, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our entire school community for the incredible support, kindness, and generosity shown to our staff throughout the week. From thoughtful notes and treats to donations, meals, and encouraging words, every gesture meant so much to our teachers and staff members. Your support reminds us how special the Liberty Elementary community truly is and how fortunate we are to work alongside families who value and appreciate education. Thank you for helping make our staff feel celebrated, encouraged, and loved for all they do each day for our students!

🏫 Pick-Up Drop Off Procedure

Just a few friendly reminders to keep our drop off line moving in the mornings:

• If you are the first car along the curb, please pull all the way up to the first blue cone. Students should use the entire sidewalk between the cones to exit vehicles.
• Your child should remain in your vehicle until the bell rings at 9:00 am.
• Parents should not park and walk through the parking lot. If your child needs help opening the car door, one of the staff members outside will help.
• If your child has a snack/treat/or extra things to carry, please do not park.  Come through the line and a staff member will help him/her.
• Please have your child seated on the passenger side of the vehicle so he/she can exit closest to the sidewalk.
• Remind your child to walk on the sidewalk near the cones and not the parking lot after he/she exits your vehicle.
• The tardy bell rings at 9:15, your child should be in the building before the bell rings.
• During pick up time please be courteous of others. Our preschool parents park and do come up to get their child so please be courteous of them in the parking lot. 
• Please make sure that your child knows what things they need to get out before they enter in the morning for the detectors. 

 

🚌 Transportation

 

Some buses have rolled out with seat belts. Please remind your child that they are to wear their seat belt. Students need to also be in their assigned seat as well.

Weapon Detectors

 

Our students have done an excellent job learning how to go through the weapons detectors each morning. With practice and patience, the process has gone very smoothly, and we have been able to get all students into the building before 9:15 each day. Much of this success is thanks to the support from our families in helping students be prepared each morning. Thank you for your continued support as we work together to keep our school safe!

4th Grade Recorder Symphony

Our 4th grade students recently had the exciting opportunity to participate in the Recorder Symphony! Students worked hard practicing their recorder skills and were able to showcase their musical talents alongside other young musicians. It was a wonderful experience that allowed students to build confidence, demonstrate teamwork, and experience the joy of music performance. We are so proud of the dedication and effort our 4th graders showed throughout this special opportunity!
