Dear Falling Waters Families,
Today we had kindergarten round up and welcomed new students to our building. We learned that many of our future kindergarteners have siblings in the building, and as I visited classrooms, many of our school-age students asked how their brother or sister did at round up. We have such a kind and caring community here!
You should have received a blue sheet with conference information from your child's classroom teachers. We are looking forward to meeting with you soon to celebrate all of the progress your child(ren) have made this year.
Enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend!

Parents are able to access their child's lunch account online. Visit our Food & Nutrition Services website here. Accounts and payment information can be found here.
If you should have any questions regarding your child’s lunch account, please feel free to contact our lunch paraprofessional, Mrs. Kelly Leahy at 402-332-3938 or kleahy@gpsne.org.
Students are welcome to celebrate their birthdays at school! Please be sure treats are store bought. Check with your child's teacher if they are a nut-free classroom.
To help your child's birthday celebration run smoothly, please send the treats with your child to school in the morning.
Guests are welcome to join us at lunch. There will be special "Guest" tables set up in the lunchroom for you and your child to eat. Your child will not be allowed to invite another student to eat with them at the guest table.
We do ask that you limit lunch visits to birthdays only until after Labor Day to allow for us to teach expectations and help students learn the routines and procedures. Thank you for your help and understanding.
