We have added new turf on the play areas, new flooring in the cafeteria, plus several classrooms with new Promethean boards (Smartboards) to enhance student academic and achievement. It has been very exciting to see these new upgrades.

Below please find some updates and reminders for the month of January.

Happy Monday Imagine Lakewood Ranch Families,

We hope everyone is doing well this Monday morning. We wanted to take a moment and thank all of our families and friends who attended our Friday Character Parade and Trunk Or Treat. Both were wonderful and exciting events.

Our PAC Committee (Parent Action Committee) rocked it once again. We are very grateful for our parents who are part of this committee. They work very hard planning activities for our students and families. Thank you Imagine PAC.

Please find attached our November Newsletter with pictures and some quick reminders-November Newsletter.pdf

Important: Please remember that this Wednesday, November 2nd is Early Release at 1:15 pm. This means that bus stops will be about two hours earlier than their regular drop off time. Fun Clubs will still take place from 1:45-2:45 and after care will continue to run as usual.

This week will be the last week of Fun Clubs and Academic Boot Camps. These will be back in action starting in January.

Monday, November 14th-Vision and Hearing Screenings for grades K, 1st, 3rd and 6th will take place here at school. Please see below a message from Nurse Tiffany.

PARENTAL NOTIFICATION OF SCHOOL HEALTH SERVICES

Health screenings such as vision, hearing, scoliosis, growth and development (height/weight/BMI/percentile) will be done.

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.

If you do not desire these services for your child, you must write a letter to your child’s school. In your letter, you must state which of these health screenings you do not want your child to receive. Be sure to indicate your child’s name and grade. The letter must be signed and dated by the child’s parent or legal guardian.

Any questions please contact Tiffany Barnett, LPN, Clinic Nurse @ Imagine Lakewood Ranch.

Campus Updates 10/10

October 11, 2022 by Admin

Good Morning Imagine Lakewood Ranch Families,

We hope everyone is doing well this Monday afternoon. Today we wanted to keep you informed on things happening in our Imagine LWR Campus.

Hurricane Ian Donations

*As all of you know Hurricane Ian left a lot of damage in our surrounding areas. We have two sister schools in Sarasota which are struggling due to flooding, building damage, roof issues, and so much more. The hardest part is the staff, teachers, students and their families are really struggling. Some have lost everything including their homes. As part of the Imagine School family we are wanting to help our sister schools with some donations.

Currently here in our building, our students are helping by taking care of 8 rabbits from Imagine North Port HS.

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

Tarps for roofs.
Toiletries
School Supplies
Cash
Gift Cards, etc.

Anything you are able to do would be wonderful. Please send these items or any other to our front office. Our goal is every Friday to send items down to North Port.

Quarter 1 Report Cards will be sent this week.

*Since Kindergarten and 1st grade report cards are a bit different than all of the other grade levels, click here to access their Student Benchmark and Rubric Guides.
