Center School Weekly Update

Dear Center School Families,

Thank you to the PTO for providing us with an exciting start to the week.  Students participated in a STEAM Museum and had the opportunity to interface with several engaging and educational activities.  Preschool students were visited by White Memorial and some of their animal friends.

We have many field trips and events planned for the next two months.  If you would like to chaperone or volunteer in your child’s class, you must be on our volunteer list.  Please complete the volunteer form found here and return to the school office.

Looking for fun activities for your child to engage in this summer?

LPS and RSD6 are excited to sponsor the Summer Step Enrichment

program at James Morris School. This program is open to all currently

enrolled students in grades K-5 across both districts, at no cost to

of academic activities in ELA and Math subject areas, led by certified

Survey data will be used by the administrators to identify strengths and areas for growth.

Fitness Bag Information

We are excited to introduce our Fitness bags which will be sent home with all Kindergarten through Grade 3 students this year.  The activity is sponsored by Fit Together.  Fit Together is a community collaborative formed in 2011.  The initial purpose was to identify and implement environmental and social improvements in the Northwest corner of CT. Their mission is to build the healthiest kids, families and communities through sustainable strategies that foster healthy eating and active living.

Each bag has a variety of activities for students to share with their family and friends.  Suggestions of games will be included, but you are welcome to create your own fun as well.  Bags will be sent home each Friday with one student from the class.  The bag should be returned with all the contents on the following Thursday so that another classmate can enjoy the following week.  

If you would like to email pictures or share any feedback, we would love to have it.  Information can be sent to the centerschool@lpsct.org address.
