Lynbrook Elementary School update

Lynbrook Elementary had a special guest appearance at the February 28 Parent Teacher meeting.

Ronald McDonald appeared to provide a show geared towards pre-school through 3rd grade students, encouraging them to read and to learn about the power of sharing a good book with some friends. IMG_0124Combining humor with magic, the children as well as parents who attended were certainly entertained. The overflow crowd in the cafeteria filled every chair with many sitting on the floor or standing in the back. After the show Ronald spent time getting his picture taken and handing out stickers to the children. This event coordinated by the 3rd grade teaching team is one of many creative ways the Lynbrook teachers and staff reach out to the families and get them more engaged in the school. The demographics of Lynbrook from school year 2011-2012 indicates over 76% of the students as” limited English proficiency.” Through various creative means Lynbrook encourages reading a minimum of 20 minutes each night with the child, regular visits to the library, and activities making learning fun.

Another Lynbrook event I’d like to highlight is the winter concert that was held in the Lynbrook gymnasium the evening of January 17th. Music education is another means utilized in the Lynbrook curriculum that brings families together in social settings. With the diversity that exists at Lynbrook it is so very important to engage all of the families, making the school a welcoming place to facilitate learning. The gym was overflowing with families while students in the grades 4, 5 & 6 presented songs with their band instruments, several presentations by the strings, and singing by the chorus. Each year this program gets bigger and better. All in the Springfield community are welcome to attend when the next concert comes up this spring.

Here are a few important events coming up soon at Lynbrook. Remember Lynbrook is a community school, part of the Springfield community, and everyone is welcome to attend as well as get involved in the various activities at the school.
