Dear Parents:

 

The "Christmas Countdown" has begun. There are only three and a half weeks until Christmas break and we are in the midst of our Christmas Bake Sale. Please encourage friends and family to purchase some sweet treats. The last date to order is Thursday, December 12 th . If anyone is available to help package on or before Thursday, December 19th (last pick up date) please let contact Wanda Stacey (at the front desk). Many hands make light work.

 

We have been blessed with a very warm fall. However, with the cooler temperatures and snow, students are needing mittens/gloves, tuques, jackets, etc. Please ensure that your child’s name is on their winter gear as many of the children have very similar things. That will help students keep track of their winter clothing as they are going out on break and coming back in. If your child’s belongings do get misplaced, please look in the Lost and Found box that is on the shelf above the coat racks in the foyer. If your child comes home with something that does not belong to them, please bring it back and place it in the Lost and Found box. Also the students need to have indoor footwear every day.

 

Thursday, December 19th, is our last day of school before the Christmas break (December 23rd to January 2nd). We will be having a Christmas party that afternoon and school will be dismissed at 3:00 p.m. The students return to school work on January 6th .

 

As you know, in an effort to encourage school spirit and team work, as well as have a lot of fun, we have divided the students into three teams. Our team challenges for the month of December are going to be during our Christmas party on December 19th. Each student is encouraged to dress in “Christmas” fashion (no Santa Claus themes please) that day. Pictures and words on clothing will be acceptable and encouraged to see which team can foster the greater Christmas spirit. We will be having a hot lunch for our party. The students are wanting an “International Feast” that day. You will be contacted later to discuss how and what you can contribute to our Christmas dinner.

 

Please note that we will be at the rink playing sneaker hockey and broomball for gym every Thursday starting this week and in December and skating in January. The students in grades 7-12 will be at the rink on Tuesdays until the ed of January as well as on Thursdays. Your children will need a helmet that fits properly, with a chin strap, to ensure safety if they fall and skates in January. Please ensure that your children’s skates are sharpened for January. It is not easy to skate on dull skates.

 

Please encourage your child to complete the school work and Scriptures that are listed on their “Honor Roll” slip that went home with the student’s report cards, as this is the requirement to fulfill one quarter's work. Our second quarter ends January 23 rd . Also, students are required to complete a certain amount of work and recite a certain amount of Scriptures to qualify to go to International Student Convention. If you have questions about this, please contact me.

 

Please note, some of our students are starting to run low on school supplies. Ensuring that students have pencils and erasers goes a long way towards completion of their goals. Students are also encouraged to use highlighters in their PACEs to help them study. Also, students are required to have headphones and King James version Bibles in school every day.

 

Please pray for the students and staff. We believe that God has greater things in store for us as we progress through this school year. We know that each life that is a part of Lakeland Christian Academy is going to be changed as we press on in the things of God.

 

God bless you,
