Lagunitas School District

Air quality at school has declined rapidly this afternoon as a result of fires north of us in Glenn County. Students should stay inside and staff should leave campus as soon as practical after students are dismissed.

From The Lagunitas School District: There is an active yellow jacket nest on the hillside next to the upper campus parking lot- 6 feet from the curb above the handicapped parking space. Please avoid the area until further notice. Vector control has been called.

Not a surprise but always nice to get a healthy report about the lead test for the school's drinking water. MMWD tested at 4 locations and all came in at safe levels.

Don't let the kids down; it is their future- Get out and vote!

Mark your calendar for the next LEAP Give Back at Arti! On Monday, November 5, for lunch and dinner, eat in or take out, Arti will give a percentage of the profits to LEAP.

THANK YOURSELVES- we are making progress!

Come together at the Gestalt Haus tonight, Tuesday 10/23, for the next LEAP Give Back Night! A percentage of the proceeds that evening will support all three programs. The Gestalt Haus is located at 28 Bolinas Road in Fairfax. We look forward to seeing you there!

Dear Parents, This week we sent home a pledge envelope with each student. These envelopes also contain your scrip cards. We receive money every month from scrip, if you remember to use these cards each time you shop at United or the Good Earth it is free money for our school.Every envelope needs to be returned with a signature that you have received it. Please consider pledging if you haven't already. Any amount helps, and every dollar goes right back to our students. Currently, pledge pays for Spanish, electives, and field trips. Thank you, LEAP www.leap4education.org
