Parent Input for 2021-2022 Class Placements
We are beginning the process of creating class lists for the 2021-2022 school-year. If you would like to provide some input about your child’s placement, please use this form. We consider many factors when we are creating class lists including: academic and social factors, students who require additional support (ex: ELL, Special Education Services, Reading Intervention,) ethnicity, gender, and more. The information on this form will also be shared with next year's teacher to help plan for a successful start in the fall. Please know that we value your input and want to hear from everyone. However, our primary obligation is to develop class lists that are balanced and will best serve ALL students. Therefore, we cannot guarantee any specific placements or requests. Please refrain from requesting specific teachers as we cannot honor these requests. Please complete the form by Friday, April 30, 2021.
Logan Yearbook Reminder
Even though we will have spent most of the year learning online, we are still creating a yearbook for our Logan Leopards, and it is going to be awesome! As we have in previous years, we will be providing a yearbook to all Logan students, but we need some help. In previous years, we used money from school pictures to pay for a yearbook for each student. Since we do not have school pictures this year, we are asking all families who are able to purchase a yearbook for $10. If you are able, we are asking families to donate an additional $10 to pay for another student’s yearbook whose family may not have the resources to purchase for their child. We plan to distribute a yearbook to every Logan Leopard! Help us make this possible and consider donating. See the attached flyer for more information.
Logan Heritage Festival – A message from our Heritage Festival Committee
Hello Logan Families!
Consider adding a reflection of your heritage on this year's Kudoboard! Share a part of what is special to your family by adding a picture or uploading a video. The board will officially be shared during our virtual Heritage Festival the week of May 24th. We look forward to seeing everyone's contributions!

Summer Programming
We are preparing now for a full back-to-school in Fall 2021 as well as summer programs. Slides from this week’s presentation to the Board of Education on the summer school programs are available here. Registration for summer programs opens Monday, April 26th.
Rec and Ed Summer Camps
Registration is open for early childhood through 8th-grade summer camps. Half-day and full-day options are available starting June 14th. Scholarships are available, and camps are expected to fill quickly. More information, including camp descriptions and direct links to registration here.
Dress for the Weather: Outdoor Recess Reminder
In previous years, we have kept children indoors on rainy days. However, with our ongoing efforts to minimize the impacts of COVID-19 on our school, we have decided to be a little more lenient in choosing to send children outside. If there is a light rain, we will still play outside. If it is pouring rain or there is thunder or lightening, we’ll have indoor recess. Therefore, it is important to dress for the weather. Plan each day as if your kids will go outside and dress them appropriately.
