Good Morning from LPS! Just a reminder that we will not have Goalpost. Please make sure you have communicated how your student will go home today if they normally attend Goalpost.

We have openings in our Pre-K program for this school year! Let us know if you are interested for your 3- or 4-year-old kiddo!
How are you spending your Thursday night? Join us for Humphrey trivia!
It’s been a great first week of November at Liberty Primary! Last week, we had our grand opening ribbon cutting ceremony for our new, state of the art play space- the “Discovery Den.” Play is “the work of the child” (Maria Montessori) and one of our foundational beliefs at LPS! Research tells us that it takes approximately 400 repetitions to create a new synapse in the brain- unless it is done through play, in which case it only takes 10-20 repetitions (Dr. Karyn Purvis, Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development). At LPS, we are intentional about learning through play in the classroom, and our brand new Discovery Den allows our PACK to continue their learning in a high quality, visually stimulating, and motivating environment. Our kiddos have had a blast getting into the Discovery Den this week- they put out fires in the fire station, shopped for groceries at the farmer’s market, treated some sick pets in the animal hospital, and wrote letters in the post office- just to name a few! Ask your child what play space they played in this week! We can’t wait to see how our Discovery Den transforms our students’ learning in a real world, authentic way!
PACK families, we will have MAKEUP picture day on Monday. If your child was absent from school on our original picture day (9/22), please make plans for them to have their picture taken on Monday morning. Thank you!
Reminder: No school on Monday! Enjoy the long weekend!
Our Wolfpack had such an incredible day at our 2021 LPS Fall Festival! Students square danced, took a hayride around the grounds, found their way through a pallet maze, ate apple cider donuts, dug around in a corn bin, and even made some new furry friends at the petting zoo. What a great experience to close out October and head into November!
Have a great weekend, PACK! PS- Don’t forget! There is no school on Monday!
