Thanks to those of you who came out for Popsicles with the Principal yesterday! We enjoyed connecting with you over summer break!
We were so proud to represent Liberty Primary School as a National Model School in Orlando this week! Mrs. Patterson, Mrs. Ellison, our leadership team, and a group of our teachers presented at four sessions during the Model Schools Conference, sharing how we build a positive culture at LPS and innovative practices we use to teach our Wolfpack. As one of only 14 schools in the nation recognized as a National Model School, we couldn’t be more proud of the work we do at LPS every day! We are so honored to share our impact with others- we hope to continue #makingwaves for years to come!
Happy summer, Wolfpack!
While the start of the school year still seems far off, it will be here before we know it! Please take a moment to mark our calendars for Meet the Teacher, and save a copy of our 2022-2023 supply list found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zLE3uayQNGoCki7yQhhiVx30jyDHQoVO/view?usp=sharing
We hope you’re all having a safe, relaxing summer, and we’ll see you soon!
We celebrated and closed out the school year with our annual favorite this week - Carnival Day! Students rode a pirate ship and a train, slid down a huge slide, jumped on bounce houses, and enjoyed cotton candy and Philadelphia ice! What a fun way to celebrate the end of a great school year!
Water Day was a huge hit! Foamtastic was here with their foam cannons, as well as the Liberty Fire Department with a truck full of water for students - and teachers - to play in! Even a little rain could not stop the fun and smiles! What a fun day!
Happy Sunday, PACK! A reminder as we head into our last week of school: Monday and Tuesday are full days. Wednesday and Thursday are half days (LPS dismisses at 11:00 am). No After School Care on half days- and no PUPS Academy or PreK PM classes on half days. Friday is the first day of summer vacation for our Wolfpack! We are looking forward to a fun week at LPS!
Liberty Primary is so thankful for our bus drivers! For Bus Driver Appreciation Week, we shared some breakfast goodies with the Liberty/Daniel bus office staff! We appreciate our bus drivers getting our Wolfpack to and from school safely each day!
Tomorrow is Field Day! It will be HOT! Dress in cool clothes, put sunscreen on, wear a hat, and bring a water bottle! We have added water games for the afternoon groups, so 1st and 2nd grade students may want to bring a towel and/or a change of clothes! Looking forward to a fun day!
Good afternoon, PACK! During the last 3 full days of school, we will celebrate our school year with Summer Celebration! The students have worked so hard - it is time to celebrate their hard work. Each Summer Celebration day has a theme where students will participate in activities such as field games, carnival rides and food, water and foam play, and much more! It promises to be a fun time of learning and celebration.
To help support these experiences, we are asking each student to contribute $10 for the supplies and funding of these experiences. Please send cash or check (made out to Liberty Primary) to your child’s teacher or pay through MySchoolBucks.com by Friday, May 20th. Thanks!
Do you have a child who is going to be in Kindergarten next year? Now is the time to register! Enroll your child at https://registration.pickens.k12.sc.us by Monday, May 23- and share with your friends and family who need this info as well! We can’t wait to meet our future Wolfpack!
What a sweet way to start our morning! Students “picked” a fresh flower from the “Bouquet Boutique” in the rotunda and delivered it to their teacher! Teachers ended up with a bouquet of flowers, one from each of their students! The students were so proud to have something to give their teacher! We love our teachers at LPS! Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!
Still need a yearbook? We are accepting late yearbook orders - from today until supplies last! Now $25 - to cover printing and shipping late orders - if you plan to order, please do so ASAP. The company has communicated that printing and shipping may take 3-4 weeks; if the yearbooks arrive after the last day of school, we will contact you to pick them up at your convenience. Order online through MySchoolBucks or send in cash or check (made out to Liberty Primary School). Questions? Contact Tina Hall in the front office. Thanks!
Monday kicks off Teacher and Staff Appreciation week! We are lucky to have the absolute BEST at Liberty Primary School! Feel free to shower your favorite LPS teachers and staff with appreciation this week--cards, pictures, flowers, hugs, high-fives, and chocolate are all great ways to show your thanks! We love our teachers and staff at LPS!
