Message from Mrs. Becerra
Dear Lindsey Families,
Happy Leap Week! As third quarter comes to end students are continuing to grow and learn. We are also beginning to plan spring events. Please be sure to check the Lindsey Calendar on the webpage for updates about field trips, special PTO events, and spring festivities.
Our action project, Warm Ups for War Heroes, just concluded. We collected 6 boxes of items for Cleveland area vets! (See pictures below.) Our next action project will be a food drive for Geauga County. More details about this will come soon.
SAVE THE DATE: The 5th grade production of The Little Mermaid is underway. There will be three opportunities to see the show. Information about tickets will be coming soon.

Rising 6th Graders
On February 13th Mrs. Dorko and Mrs. Weisbarth visited the 5th grade students at Lindsey Elementary. In this visit, the 5th graders learned about the courses they will take, how to select their music choice, learned about the big changes in middle school and got their questions answered. Please return your music course selection form to your teacher.
Later in the spring, the 5th grade students will then have the opportunity to come visit WGMS and tour our building. This is taking place on May 17th in the morning; transportation will be provided.
Parents of incoming 6th graders will also have an informational parent night on May 9th at 6 PM at WGMS. Similar to the presentation given to the 5th graders, parents will learn about the courses students will take, changes between elementary and middle school and have an opportunity to ask questions.
Please remember when you have an end of day transportation change you need to fill out the End of Day Transportation form with your request so we have it on file in our system. If you don't see your option listed please write it in on the "other" line on the form. The form is open 4pm to 9:30 am daily. You can find the form on the webpage: End of Day Transportation form
ESCWR Student and Family Resource Center hosts a free summer learning opportunity each year for students entering grades 1-6 at our Hale Road location. The program is FREE and is for review with math and reading. Students are given a snack each session, recreation/outdoor time and will enjoy our reverse field trips. This year our theme is baseball and we have lots of fun and learning planned. Please read below for the Save the Date and look for flier and registration to be emailed beginning in April 2024!
