PTO Update — October 16, 2022

Hello families!

We hope you are having a wonderful October!  Our Fall Festival is less than two weeks away — mark your calendars for Friday, Oct. 28th, from 5-7:30pm, and please reach out to Lanni at lanni_harris@yahoo.com if you would like to help or find out more!

A reminder that we are looking for library volunteers to help shelve the books that are constantly going in and out of the school library.  The more we can help, the more books our kids can take home to read!  To find out more and learn how shelving works, you are invited to attend a volunteer orientation on Monday, October 17th, at 8:20am (after drop-off), in the school library.  The easiest way to come in is through the library door that opens onto the courtyard off Pearl St.  If you’re not sure how to find the library, wait at the Pearl St. steps and someone will come get you!

Or if you can’t make it to the orientation but are interested in volunteering, please email Tui at secretary@lepto.org!

And speaking of libraries: Lincoln-Eliot now has its very own Little Free Library!

You can find it on the corner of Jackson and Pearl St., near the benches, the flagpole, and the little bunny reading statue.  Stop by any time to take a book, add a book, or just sit and read!

 

Special thanks to LE alum & current 7th grader Jonah Sterns for building and installing the Little Free Library as part of his mitzvah project.

(If you would like to add books, we would love that — just please make sure they are children’s books!  Diverse authors and stories especially welcome!)

To find out more about Little Free Libraries, visit the organization’s website at https://littlefreelibrary.org/

Happy reading!
