Carl J. Lamb Pre-K students learned about pinatas last week!
Good afternoon, Here is this week's CJL Family Newsletter. https://5il.co/2a3rt Please send your student with warm winter gear (or email Mrs. Scremin at jscremin@sanford.org for assistance) because we do go outside when the "Feels Like" temperature is 19 degrees or warmer. A change of clothes is important to have as well. To avoid having inside recess most of the week, if it's 17 or 18 degrees, with little to no ice and wind, and sunny out, we may still go outside to play. Students must be bundled with snow pants, boots, and gloves or mittens to play in the snow. Drive safely everyone and have a great week!
Carl J. Lamb’s Kindness Club is going strong! When students join an after school club, they make new friends and feel a sense of belonging. It helps improve attendance and student achievement!
Good afternoon, CJL Families! We hope that you had a fantastic Thanksgiving Break! Check out our newsletter to see what we're grateful for at CJL and to learn about upcoming events.

Good evening CJL Families, We are planning to have school on Monday and will follow our normal routines and procedures. Our vestibule is fully ready now so we'll be using the same procedures as all other Sanford Schools at the front door (more details will be in our CJL Family Newsletter on Sunday). We'll also include the language that we plan to use with our students regarding this week's tragic event in that newsletter. Here is a resource from the Center for Grieving Children: How to Support a Child After a Tragedy https://www.cgcmaine.org/2019/07/16/how-to-support-a-child-after-a-tragedy/. We do plan to hold our Spirit Week and our Veterans Day Celebration on Friday. Thank you, Sherri Baron, CJL Principal
