EARTH HOUR

The Eco-Warriors asked me to relay the following information to you...

All TDSB schools will shut off their lights from 2-3:00 p.m. on Friday, March 27th. We are also encouraging students to promote the Global Earth Hour on Saturday, March 28th @ 8:30 p.m. Any discussion you can incorporate into the days leading up to this event would certainly help students understand the impact they can have on slowing global warming. Please feel free to add our Eco Warrior Blog link to your pages (listed to the right); this is where we post "Eco Stuff" including the latest Energy Reductions @ LKS. Earth Week Activities (April 20th-24th) will be announced shortly and will also be posted on our Eco Warrior Blog (http:lksecowarriors.blogspot.com) and the LKS Website (listed to the right).

Just a reminder to please inform the office, as soon as possible, if you know that your child will not be attending LKS next year. This is important information to know as we plan classes. Another reminder to those parents who have moved from our area, to register your child in your new home school for September. The sooner the new school knows, the better they can place your child. Reminder letters will be sent home shortly.
