🎨🎶 Youth Art Month & Music in Our Schools Month: March 20 🎶🎨

“One of the most rewarding parts of teaching is seeing students support and uplift one another!” says Turtle Lake music teacher Caroline Connolly. 🎵❤️ Here is an example of that in action! ⬇️

During 5th grade Beginning Band lessons, Alexis P. is pictured helping Jaycee B. by offering some pointers on the trumpet. 🎺 Their teamwork shows the encouragement and collaboration that make the Turtle Lake music department so special! 💛

We are proud to see our students learning, growing, and supporting each other every day. Keep it up, Lakers! 🐢

📚✨ The countdown is on for the Turtle Lake Schools Scholastic Book Fair! ✨📚

🗓️ Book Fair Dates:
March 31st, 3:30 - 7:40
April 1st, 3:30 - 5:00
April 2nd, 3:30 - 7:40

The Scholastic Book Fair is coming soon, and we’re excited to see our Lakers discover new books they’ll love! One easy way to prepare your student for the fair is by setting up a Scholastic eWallet. 💵

An eWallet is a safe, convenient, and cash-free way for students to shop at the Book Fair. Parents can create an account for their child, and family members like grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends can even contribute funds online. That means no worrying about sending cash to school! 🙌

Once the eWallet is set up, students can shop the Book Fair using their digital funds and pick out books they’re excited to read! 📚🤩

🔗 Set up your student's account today!

Oh, the places these Little Lakers will go! 🤩🐢

Last week, our 4K students celebrated Dr. Seuss’s birthday with a week full of silly fun and learning! 🤪 Some of the exciting activities included building The Cat in the Hat towers, making Truffula trees, showing off Thing 1 & Thing 2's crazy hair, exploring different places we would go, and measuring with a foot. 🎉

It was a wonderful week filled with creativity, laughter, and imagination. We love seeing our Little Lakers learn and have fun along the way! ❤️💛
