 Happy Snow Day! Hope everyone is safe and warm during this 1st snowfall of the year! I saw lots of Lemon Road families and alumnae sledding and making fun memories. Keep an eye on the FCPS website regarding any schedule changes for tomorrow - they have not yet been determined.
We look forward to tomorrow’s concert and author’s visit! These are special experiences for the students and we plan to have them even if we have a 2 hour delayed opening. Our next spirit day and Freaky Friday is Friday - Pajama Day! All students and staff are encouraged to get cozy and celebrate January birthdays!
 The weather might be frightful but we have some fun events happening to lift your spirits!
- Join us in celebrating the talented musicians at Lemon Road at the Winter Concerts on January 17th.
- It's not too late to see the Wizards play the Nuggets on Sunday January 21st. Tickets are $35 each - with $5 per ticket going to the PTA. Join us! https://fevo-enterprise.com/event/wiz-lemonroad
- Interested in getting more involved with the school & PTA? PTA Board positions need filling for the next school year - email us at lemonroadpta@gmail.com to find out more or recommend someone you think would be great!
- January 24 & 25th take the night off cooking and head to Ledo pizza for dinner and support the PTA at the same time. The out and eat in orders all count - just mention Lemon Road when ordering
This week, our community will focus on perseverance. This means you complete what you start despite obstacles. You never give up. The concept of perseverance can most often be found in one’s active pursuit in overcoming obstacles. Those who persevere are able to set goals for themselves and then take active, calculated steps toward those goals. People demonstrating high levels of perseverance are able to handle significant, sometimes repeated, setbacks in pursuit of goals.
