We are looking for volunteer parents for the wrapping station, the PAP check-in table as well as the McTeacher Night at McDonald's both evenings at Lake Mead and Rainbow.

Study Hall Monitors

Ms. Spence is in need of some parents that are able to stay after school on Mondays to help her monitor behavior. She holds study hall to help those students in need of extra support and learning with their homework lessons.

In order for her to be able to concentrate on teaching the students, she is asking that a few parents volunteer to help her supervise the children as they work.

Study Hall is held in Room 604 every Monday from 2:20pm - 3:00pm

Let's help our kids learn, no matter what it takes!

Lied Sponsors Three Families In Need! Please Help Us.....

November Meeting Minutes

Lied Parents, The Halloween Carnival was so much fun! Thank you to everyone that volunteered! Parents, students and staff really pulled together as a community and blew it out of the park. A Spanish version of this newsletter is attached, or click here.

Announcements  Safety is always a very important issue to keep in the forefront of our minds! Recently, our community has suffered extreme loss! From Lied staff, students and parents, our thoughts are with everyone grieving during this time. With safety being a great concern, as it should always be, we are asking for everyone to be very mindful with their vehicles during drop-off and pick-up. We are asking for parent help before and after school to help kids safe while crossing the streets around the school. – PAP is contacting Mr. Washington of the Gator Gents Program for participants. We are also asking that other interested parents please contact Mrs. Ritz at 799-4620. Some safe driving habits to consider are: NO U-turns when dropping off and picking up, signaling your intentions are also appropriate; 15 MPH when Children Are Present; Stay aware of all 4 sides of your vehicle at all times, not just in front; Do not talk on phone or text during drop off and pick up; Administration will be contacting everyone that they feel is not conducting themselves in a safe manner. PAP will be supporting 1 family from each grade level for Christmas; Mrs. Ritz is asking the teachers for nominations, as well as, donations to be given by 11/28/11, the families will need to pick up the basket/gifts by December 16. Please know that these families may not necessarily be publically named. Student Council does Candy Cane sales to help support a family in need each year and will be doing it this year as well.

Fun! Fun! Fun!

The Halloween Carnival was a lot of fun! We hope everyone enjoyed it! Thank you to all of the volunteers and Mrs. Butto for all the hard work and effort!
