Happy Thursday Imagine LWR Families,
 
Welcome back and Happy New Year to everyone.  We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday break and are looking forward to this new year.  We are all happy to be back and excited to be working once again with our amazing scholars.
 
Our school has been very busy during the holiday break.  We had new air conditioning units put in, new awnings on the Middle School side, lots of cleaning, and the most exciting part, new additions to our playground.  Please see picture attached in our newsletter.  We are extremely grateful to our Imagine PAC team and the donations of Cool Today and the Didomenico Family for helping us get these new additions.  The kids are going to love it.  Thank you to the many of you that participated in our fundraisers.  
 
Please see below some important updates for our school:

COVID UPDTES-With all of the new cases of Covid after the Holiday Break and New Year, we wanted to keep you informed that here at our Imagine LWR campus we continue to focus on cleaning and disinfecting.  Covid has not been something easy to contain, but we continue to be proactive and cautious as best as possible.  We suggest students wear masks to help control the spread, but this is a decision for you to make as they are not mandated or required. 
 
SOCCER TRYOUTS-Soccer tryouts will take place next week for grades 5th-8th.  These will be on Tuesday-Thursday from 4:00-5:15 at the Lakewood Ranch HS Soccer Fields.  Transportation must be provided by families.

SUMMER CAMP-We are excited to let you know that we are in the works on setting up an Academic Summer Camp free of charge. Our goal for the program is to run the camp from June 6-July 1 from 8:30-12:30. We are hoping to provide additional practice of skills and necessary academic support that our kids need, and at the same time provide you with a little break in the morning for some me time 😊. A survey will be sent January 17th to get more parent input and feedback.
 
As you can see there are lots and lots of exciting things taking place.

PARENTAL NOTIFICATION OF SCHOOL HEALTH SERVICES
Starting November 8th health screenings for Grades K, 1st, 3rd and 6th will be held at our school including vision, hearing, scoliosis, growth and development (height/weight/BMI/percentile).
  
After any health screening, a record of the results will be sent home with the child.  Please contact the school if you have questions or concerns.
