Important School Information
Dear Parents of Incoming Kindergartens
We would like to welcome you and your child to Lindon Elementary! Reading is the most critical skill any student at Lindon Elementary can learn and we would like your child to get started right away.
In order to help our new Kindergarteners develop early reading abilities, we are loaning each student a copy of Letter Factory. We are confident that their letter recognition and early phonic skills will become an area of strength if they are allowed to regularly watch this fun, educational DVD throughout the summer.
You can pick up the DVD during the summer library times (Mondays from 8:30 - 10:30 am). Please take good care of it over the summer and then return it at the beginning of the school year in August. The videos were paid for by funds allocated to the school through the Utah School Land Trust Grant. The School Community Council manages these funds and it is our pleasure to provide this learning opportunity for our newest students. Have a great summer!
Sincerely,
The 2008-2009 Lindon School Community Council
Tami Mickelsen, Diane Godfrey, Shauna Carter, Bob Miller, Jason Theler, Amy Mather, and Kim Walker

FRIENDS FOR SIGHT
This is a nonprofit organization setup to detect vision problems, is coming to UTAH Valley. We need people who recognize the importance of children's vision concerns, are willing to be trained in vision screening, and will volunteer at least 25 hours a year. Volunteers will be trained in vision screening to recognize Amblyopia, lazy eye blindness which affects one in four children and is correctable up to age seven, and other vision problems. Vision screening is done on the preschool level to identify problems as soon as possible. Our goal is to begin screening in Fall 2009. For more information or to volunteer, please contact Terri Smith at 801-226-3157, email
tap.smith@hotmail.com or the United way at 801-377-6600. For information on Friends for Sight please visit www.for-sight.com.
