View this email in your browser

Dear Lenart Family,

I hope all our families have a fantastic Memorial Day Weekend! Let's not forget all the heroes who keep us safe and take a moment to commemorate the bravery, courage and honor of our troops. Remember there are no classes on Monday, May 25th. Enjoy the day off! It looks like we have some nice weather coming our way, so I hope you have the opportunity to enjoy the sunshine outside.

I just received guidelines from CPS about retrieving student belongings. I will send out more information shortly, as our staff works to devise a plan and prepare a schedule for pick-up.

With kindness, grace, patience, and each other, we will get through this together. Have a wonderful weekend!

With Gratitude,

Principal Sims
