Lace Up for Mission Excellence! 👟🐾
To our LUES partners,
It’s time to Lace Up for Mission Excellence and show our Bulldog pride! We are excited to kick off our Shoe Drive Fundraiser, and we need your help to make it a huge success.
This fundraiser is a win-win! Donated shoes will help communities in need around the world while also raising much-needed funds for our school. Proceeds will help support our Veterans Day Breakfast and other special school events and activities for our students.
Here’s how you can help:
👟 Collection boxes will be located at the end of each hall and in front of the Media Center.
📅 The shoe drive runs through October 31st.
📦 We need 100+ bags, with 25 pairs of shoes per bag, to qualify for free shipping!!
⚖️ The company pays us by the pound, and our BIG goal is 25,000 pounds of shoes!
📣 Help us spread the word!

Your support, enthusiasm, and willingness to participate make a tremendous difference.
Let’s come together, Be a Dawg #B.A.D., and show what Bulldog Strong really means. Every pair counts, every pound matters, and every contribution helps us continue our commitment to Mission Excellence.
Lace Up. Give Back. Be a Dawg. Let’s Reach 2,500 Pounds!

🍫 In 3rd grade math, students are exploring multiplication strategies and learning how arrays can help find a product. Students from Mrs. Hollie Braddy's class designed their own Chocolate Boxes by arranging 12 chocolates into different arrays. This hands-on activity helped students build and visualize their understanding of arrays! ✏️🍫
Today we’re giving a BIG shoutout to our amazing custodial staff at Lyons Upper Elementary! 🐾
Thank you for all the hard work you do each and every day to keep our school clean, safe, and welcoming for our students and staff. So much of what you do happens behind the scenes, but it certainly does not go unnoticed!
We appreciate your dedication, your hard work, and the pride you take in caring for our school. LUES wouldn’t be the same without you! ❤️💙
Help us show our custodians some love today! 🐾👏
Thank you to our students, families, and staff for making attendance a priority. Every day matters, and every day at school is another opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed!

🍎🍊 Math in Action: Market Day! 🥕🍓
Our 3rd grade students are putting their multiplication strategies to work! During our Market Day, students recorded their partners’ orders for fruit sold in bags (groups). They identified the number of bags and how many pieces of fruit were in each bag to find the product. Students then determined their partners’ total order. Our teachers are giving students the opportunity to practice using multiplication strategies in a real-world context! ✏️➗🍎
Learning + collaboration + hands-on practice = math that makes sense! 💙
