Principal's Update

Hello Laliberte Families,
I hope you had a wonderful holiday season with family and friends. We are excited to start a new year filled with amazing learning experiences and opportunities to create life-long memories. Here is our information for the first week of school in 2026.
Lost and Found - We have so many lost items hanging in the area of the main office we have to start cleaning them out. Please ask your child to check the lost and found area for any items they have lost. By Friday, January 16th, any items left will be donated to a local organization. 
Early Release Days - In January, we have 2 early release days: January 14th and January 28th. Students will be dismissed at 12:05 pm and lunch will be served.
Outdoor Recess - Please note that when the weather allows, students will go outside for recess. It is important for students to wear appropriate outdoor clothing. 

I’d like to take this opportunity on behalf of the LaLiberte Staff, to wish all of our families a Happy and Healthy New Year!  As always, please reach out with any questions or concerns. 
All my best,
Deb Westell, Principal

Winter Party: THANK YOU to all volunteers who helped make our annual winter party a success ! The students enjoyed making a clay snowman, listening to holiday music, playing bingo, dressing up the snowman with toilet paper and watching a holiday movie. A huge thanks to LPO President Beth Alles for all her hard work in making the three days a success! 
Teacher Appreciation: Thank you to all parents who donated to our December teacher appreciation events. From stocking the lounge, giftcards, wrapping paper and our festive breakfast cart the teachers were very appreciative for all we do!
