Dear MLS Families,

It’s hard to believe we’re already nearing the end of October! The fall sports season is wrapping up, and our Finding Our Stride running group just completed their season with the final CHaD race! It was wonderful to see such an incredible turnout from the community—I spotted so many past, current, and future Mount Lebanon families participating in the event!

A big thank you to our amazing parent volunteers who came in to teach 4Winds lessons to our classes. We also had a special guest parent visit the 4th-grade classrooms to present about the heart, which connected perfectly to their current study of the circulatory system.

We’ve had a wonderful past two weeks filled with school-wide activities, field trips, fire safety programs, and professional development for staff today!

First, I want to thank our amazing PTO for organizing the first-ever Fall Festival at MLS. It was incredible to see so many families on Saturday! The pumpkin decorating, fall activities, hayrides, tours of the Lebanon Fire Truck, Book Fair, and the costume and clothing swap were all amazing. It truly brought our community together!

Afternoon Sing today was a wonderful way to end our week together at MLS! The students had so much energy for singing and dancing!

It’s been a very full week at MLS—our students have been busy taking the NWEA tests, releasing butterflies, visiting the Book Fair, and continuing their growth in reading, math, and science.

Join Mrs. Roach for Coffee with the Principal on Tuesday, Oct. 7 from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. in the conference room! We always love hearing from families, so we plan to host these events monthly to give you more opportunities to interact with the school.

Families are invited to learn more about our Title I programming and the services available to students. While these meetings are designed for families of students currently receiving Title I services, all are welcome to attend.

To accommodate different schedules, we are offering virtual and in-person options

We are already twelve days into our school year, and our students are settling beautifully into their routines! At home—whether at the dinner table, in the car, or during downtime—you might enjoy asking your young learners about the fun sharing games they’ve been playing during morning meeting. You can also ask them what they’re discovering in Arts and Letters—all grades have begun their first module—and in math, where classes have now started instruction.

The weather has been gorgeous, and both students and staff have been taking full advantage of the fall air during recess.
