What's Happening at LCES?!
Pictured above are 6th graders and kindergarteners singing and playing music together in Ms. Kmetz's music class; the House of Northern Lights playing outdoor games for earning the most "Blizzard Tickets" during the first quarter of school; and kindergarten and 2nd-grade staff members showing team spirit in their The Very Hungry Caterpillar swag! 🐛🦋
 Our band teacher, Mrs. Hill, had the pleasure of volunteering for “Senior Night” at Chantilly’s last home game of the season, where five former LCES Band students were recognized! She can recall helping them pick their instruments in 5th grade just before the pandemic. Now, they are all valued members of the Chantilly Band program: one is the drum major, another is the woodwind captain, and another is a trumpet section leader. This is just a glimpse at what the future holds for our LCES Band students, and the leadership opportunities that lie ahead! Go Chargers!

In partnership with the SCA, we are excited to share exciting news about the return of Blizzard’s Market! We had such great feedback from our students last year and we’re thrilled to keep it going. Blizzard’s Market is a school store with small, low-cost items for sale. Items will range from 25 cents to $2. Only quarters and dollar bills will be accepted. The first few markets will take place on the following dates from 8:35-8:50 am in the front lobby.
Friday, November 13th (K-3)
Friday, December 11th (4-6)
Students should be in their classrooms ready to learn at 8:50 am. It is important that your child is on time to unpack and start the day off with their classmates.
Please allow enough time when dropping off at Kiss and Ride, so your child has enough time to walk to their classroom.
