🎨 Chalk the Walk is one of our favorite traditions! Students of all grades are invited to bring their families and help us turn the school sidewalk into a colorful, welcoming path filled with artwork, messages, and school spirit. It’s a fun way to make the first day of school extra special and exciting for everyone. We’ll provide the chalk—you bring the creativity! 

Hosted by the LRES PTA

🎉 After a ROARING success last year, don't miss this year's Safari! 🦁🌿

Calling all explorers—this is one wild journey you won’t want to miss! Lucky’s Safari is a brand new PTA event for all students, Kindergarten through 6th grade, filled with fun, connection, and a whole lot of school spirit! This will be our second year with this event. Last year's was a huge success, so be sure to RSVP now so you don't miss out!

Kids will travel through safari-themed stations packed with exciting activities designed to help them build friendships, work together, and make awesome memories. Whether they’re brand new to the school or already part of the pride, there’s something for everyone on this adventure!

✨ What’s in store:

  • Creative crafts and games that bring kids together

  • ​Teamwork challenges that get kids moving, laughing, and connecting

  • Collaborative art projects that will be displayed at the school the week after the event

  • A chance to win a massive jar of animal crackers to share with their homeroom class

  • A photo safari stop to capture the wild fun

  • A special appearance from Lucky the Lion, our school’s fearless mascot

  • and a chance to view the contents of our 55th anniversary Time Capsule before we seal it up!

Don’t miss this exciting, one-evening-only event where friendship takes center stage and every student gets to shine. It’s a great way to kick off the school year and connect with classmates old and new. Plan to spend at least an hour so your explorer has a chance to visit all the stations!

📅 Bring your explorer and join the adventure—because friendships are the greatest treasure of all.

Hosted by the LRES PTA

An RSVP helps us make sure we have plenty of safari station materials ready. Every explorer is welcome to join the adventure—whether you sign up ahead or swing by last-minute!

​We will need volunteers to make this safari fun a reality! Please consider signing up to help us for a shift here. You can volunteer and still enjoy the event with your family. We can't do it without you!! 

New this year: all Safari Guides (volunteers) will receive a limited edition t-shirt (adult sizes)!

 

 

Whether you are feeling blue or celebratory, join your fellow LRES parents for our PTA-sponsored Coffee & Comfort event on the first day of school: August 24th. After the pictures, hugs, and drop-off, meet us outside near the school playground for conversation and a light breakfast. Refreshments will be available until 10am.
