Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! It’s •FRIENDS• Week at LAES!
Day ✌🏼 was lunch with some of our SUBstitute Teachers. Thank you to those that could make it! ❤️
Marcel was found early this morning, but hid so good all day, until the kindergarteners went looking.

Today, our students had the opportunity to visit our high school for an interactive assembly with Hope Inc., a remarkable nonprofit based in Fargo, dedicated to empowering individuals with mobility challenges through adaptive sports and recreational activities. 🏀♿️🧑🏻🎓
During the assembly, students engaged in hands-on activities, like wheelchair soccer and basketball, gaining firsthand insight into the challenges faced by those with physical disabilities. This experience not only fostered empathy and understanding, but also highlighted the importance of inclusivity and teamwork. 👫🏅
A huge, thank you to Hope Inc. for bringing this inspiring and educational experience to our students. 💙

One exciting activity happening is “Find Marcel". Marcel has been sneaking around the school, hiding in different spots each day! Teachers (with help from their students) who find him are entered into a special drawing at the end of the week!
Let the fun begin!

If voters approve the referendum on June 10, the investments in our school buildings will be supported by a tax increase on property in our district. Tax impacts will depend on the true and full value of your property. You can easily calculate your projected tax impact with the tax calculator found at https://SoaringForwardTogether.com/tax-impact -- just enter the true and full value of your property as it appears on your most recent tax statement to see your annual impact.
We're committed to ensuring all residents of our district have the information they need to make an informed vote on Election Day. If you have questions about the referendum, don't hesitate to reach out to us at https://SoaringForwardTogether.com/connect/
A big SHOUT OUT to our 3rd grade students for their performance of The Lorax during the Arbor Day presentation! You helped bring the story to life and reminded us all to speak for the trees!
Also, thank you to the SAS students for joining us and participating—you helped make the day even more special! 🌳🌲👏🌱
One of the most common challenges brought up by staff and community members during the creation of the referendum plan was having only one room at Langdon Area Elementary for breakfast, lunch, physical education, performances and events. So many combined uses makes scheduling activities extremely difficult to manage, and the space must be constantly transitioned back and forth between dining, physcial education, and events several times a day. When inclement weather requires indoor recess, it is also the only area capable of accommodating students.
In addition to addressing the most urgently needed maintenance at both of our buildings, the referendum on June 10 asks to build a gymnasium for our youngest students to solve these problems and ensure they have dedicated space for activity, dining, and school events.

Today, our 5th grade students took a fun and educational field trip to the Langdon Prairie Health Fair! They explored booths, learned about healthy habits, and discovered ways to stay active and strong!
A big thank you to Langdon Prairie Health for hosting such an awesome event for our community! 🧠💪🥦🚑🩺
You’re invited to a special Arbor Day presentation tomorrow, May 1, at 1:00 at LAES! Talented 3rd grade students will have a presentation and some special performances.
