Legacy Peak Elementary School

We’re so excited to meet our future Kits next Thursday at Kinder Connect!

Calling all incoming Kindergarten families! 🎉

We’re excited to welcome new Kits to the Legacy Peak community! Join us for Kinder Connect on Thursday, May 28 from 4:00–5:30pm at Legacy Peak Elementary.

We’ll kick things off with an information session from LPE Administration, followed by a playground playdate with snacks hosted by the PTA.

It’s a great chance for kids and families to meet new friends and start building connections before the school year begins.

✅ Please RSVP so we can plan for snacks and drinks (link in the comments).

🎉 That’s a wrap on another amazing school year at Legacy Peak Elementary! 🎉

Today we celebrate all the learning, laughter, friendships, and memories made throughout the year. We are so proud of our students for their hard work and growth, and so thankful for our incredible staff and supportive families who make LPE such a special place.

A special congratulations to our Kindergarten graduates as they take their first big step in their educational journey, and to our amazing 5th graders as they move on to middle school! We are so proud of all you have accomplished and can’t wait to see what’s ahead for you.

Wishing all of our Legacy Peak families a safe, fun, and relaxing summer break! ☀️📚💙

See you next year, Kits!

Congratulations to our Safety award winners! These students were chosen for consistently showing Awareness, Risk Taking, Trust, and Responsibility. These qualities are help students grow academically and socially, while making their classrooms and LPE a safter place. Great job Kits!

📚 Book Exchange at LPE! ☀️

LPE families,

We have a Book Exchange set up in the main hallway! Students are invited to bring in gently used books they’ve already enjoyed and trade them for “new-to-them” books to read this summer.

Please help your child look through their bookshelves and pick out books they’re ready to share. Then send them in next week for the exchange!

Our goal is to encourage students to keep reading over the summer, helping slow the “summer slide” while continuing to grow curiosity, creativity, and imagination. Thank you for partnering with us to support a love of reading!

📖 Easy Ways to Keep Kids Reading This Summer:
• Set aside 15–30 minutes each day for reading
• Read aloud together as a family
• Visit PPLD for books, story times, and summer programs
• Swap books with friends or siblings
• Let kids choose topics they love—comics, sports, animals, and more
• Use simple reading rewards or charts
• Listen to audiobooks in the car or at home
• Connect reading to everyday activities like cooking or traveling
• Ask your child to share something interesting they learned from a book
• Encourage all kinds of reading—books, recipes, articles, maps, and instructions

Thank you again for supporting our young readers! ❤️

What an incredible Field Day at Legacy Peak! The smiles, laughter, teamwork, and energy made it such a fun and memorable day for everyone involved.

A HUGE thank you to Coach Dosmann and volunteers for all the hard work, planning, and enthusiasm that made this one of the best Field Days yet. Your dedication to our kids and school community does not go unnoticed. We appreciate everything you do!

Unfortunately, this event has been cancelled due to the weather forecast.

*****Update!!!!******

🌧️ Due to the predicted cold temperatures and potential rain, we have decided to cancel Rock the Chalk this year. We are very sad about this and appreciate everyone’s understanding and support. We look forward to bringing fun activities next year. ✨

Join us for our annual Rock the Chalk event on May 20 from 4–6 PM!

Bring the whole family for an afternoon of fun with bubbles, sidewalk chalk art, music, and time to hang out with friends. Chalk and bubbles will be provided for the kids, and everyone is invited to get creative! ☀️🍦

We’re also excited to have Josh and John’s Ice Cream Scoop Bus on site with treats available for purchase. And keep an eye out — Scout may even make a special appearance!

We can’t wait to see you there!

What a morning! 🎉 Our 3rd grade students hosted Market Day on the field to wrap up their PBL unit, answering the driving question: “How can I, as an entrepreneur, show my understanding of economics to create a profitable product in our classroom economy?” Students ran booths, sold products, and put real-world learning into practice. Second graders enjoyed shopping and got a sneak peek at what they’ll do next year. Amazing work, 3rd grade — proud of your creativity and teamwork! 🙌

A huge thank you to our PTA for bringing our staff lunch this past week! As always, we appreciate all that they do for us and our community.

The LPE PTA helped celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week by treating our amazing teachers to a delicious Fuzzy’s Nacho Bar on Thursday! 🌮💙

Thank you to our incredible staff for everything you do for our students each and every day. We appreciate you more than words can say! 🍎✨

✨ Our first graders lit up last night at Starry Night—sharing projects with family, peeking into space with VR goggles, and gazing at the heavens in Challenger Learning Center’s planetarium and with the COS Astronomical Society. Little learners, big dreams. 🌟👩‍🚀🔭 What made you smile most?
