What an incredible week at Concord! It was a week where learning included so much more than academics! Empathy was the theme that can be seen from our Family Team activities to Ability Awareness Day.
Grant Winners
The Lindbergh Schools Foundation awarded 5 Concord teachers almost $2,500 to fund their creative projects.
Anne Gastreich — Alternative Seating for Alternative Learners
Chandra Heinlein — Ready to Learn!
Anna Martin — Making Mathematicians
Kimberly Rappold — Who Needs a Break?
Carrie Turek — Brain Break Centers
Mrs. Goedde participated in the blooming Artist project last year. As a part of this project, our student Mary submitted her artwork and it was chosen by artist Kat Kissick to replicate. Kat made an original piece to go along with Mary's and it hung in the Old Orchard Art Gallery over the summer. Kat gifted the piece to Mary to keep. We are so proud of our budding artist, May Ha!
School Counselor’s Day
This Friday we celebrate our school counselors. Friday is a day for students to show how grateful they are for the wonderful job our counselors do each day.
Valentine’s Day Party Reminders
Please remind parents that Valentine cards should NOT include candy. If you are hosting a Valentine activity with food, please be sure all food is approved by the nurse ahead of time.
Reminder for Hallway Behavior:
Just a gentle reminder that we need quiet in the hallways when going to and from lunch, recess, and block. Mrs. Carson is doing ELL testing and especially needs a quiet hallway.
Computer Cart Update:
All 5th grade technology leaders have been assigned and will be visiting your rooms and the rolling labs at the end of the day.
Viviano’s Order:
If you haven’t already ordered, please make your order for Viviano’s on February 9th. If you aren’t sure if you have ordered yet, click here.

A special thanks to Stacy Zobrist, Kate Pickett, and Tim Brooks for an amazing ability awareness day!
Committee Begins Work on Boundary Changes
More than 20 Lindbergh parents, community members and district administrators met on Jan. 25 to begin work on the elementary and middle school Boundary Change Committee. The committee will meet 3-4 times over the next few months, with a goal of presenting proposed boundary changes at the March 14 Board of Education meeting. This is an important process that will affect families throughout our district. I encourage parents to share feedback with the committee and follow its progress by visiting go.lindberghschools.ws/boundaries and clicking “Committee Updates.”
