9th Annual Lovejoy ISD Fine Arts Festival - November 30th and December 1st
We are excited to invite you to a magical weekend of experiencing the incredible performing and rich visual arts programs in Lovejoy ISD. Each elementary campus choir will perform Saturday from 10AM - 11:30AM and all elementary students will have visual art on display in the LHS auxiliary gym throughout the event. We hope you will plan to see your child's art, attend the elementary choir performances and then stay to visit the SCIS, WSMS, and LHS performances and exhibits. The festival is a wonderful opportunity to see where your child can participate as they move up to SCIS and beyond.
There are Fine Arts Festival volunteer opportunities available for our Lovejoy ISD elementary parents. Please take a moment to read this
flyer to see if you can help. If you have questions please contact
[email protected].

The WorryWoo Monsters
is an award winning series of books and plush dolls written and illustrated by Andi Green. Emotions themselves are turned into lovable quirky characters that embark on delightful journeys of self-awareness. Created to promote healthy emotional wellness, each WorryWoo adventure concludes with an upbeat message of "Hey, it's OK" and present the perfect opportunity to openly discuss topics that don't have easy answers. Kinder and 2nd grade will be beginning a 6 week series of the Worry Woo Monsters. I would like to thank Crystal Klein for graciously donating The WorryWoo Monsters book series.
Other grade levels will be working on Kindness and Caring beginning with my favorite story, Each Kindness.

Flu Season Reminders/Illness:
We are now heading into flu season. The most common symptoms of flu seem to be stomach ache, cough, fever/body aches, headache, and tired-ness. Currently we are seeing a stomach virus (12-24 hour virus), some strep throat, a virus that seems to be lasting about 2-3 days, and a lot of allergy related symptoms due to the weather changes.
Frequent handwashing is vital to keeping illness at bay. Now is a good time to review proper handwashing practices with young children. Using soap and rubbing vigorously under running water for about 30 seconds to one minute is important to get rid of the germs that cause the flu and other viruses. Asking young children to "sing the ABCs" at a steady rate while washing will help them reach the 30 second mark.
Please remember, if your little ones have had diarrhea, fever greater than 100 (without medications), or vomiting they must be out of school for a full 24 hours so that we can help keep protect others.
If your child is absent from school, written documentation is needed. Please email [email protected] and [email protected] with the date and reason for the absence. Thanks for all you do at home to keep your children healthy and in school.
