LOGOS SCHOOL UPDATE – 2023/24 – Update #13 (Nov 15, 2023)
------------- GENERAL -------------
Cancellation or Delayed Start Time: Logos School rarely closes, but in case of closure or delay due to severe weather, Mr. Whitling or Mr. Euhus will send an official email by 7 am. Closure/delay information will also be posted on our website, specifically as an update on the "Parent Portal" page. Do not assume that Logos School is closed if other schools are closed; every school district makes its own determination. If Logos School stays open and you do not think it safe to travel to school, please do what you deem best for your family. We will help students make up any missed work.
Logos West Drop Off & Pick Up: Please pull all the way forward when dropping off or picking up students from the front parking lot. Do not stop at the top of the drive or the front stairs, as this backs up traffic on the hill and becomes dangerous when ice is present. Pulling all the way forward to the portables creates space so that other families do not need to stop and slide on the hill. Thank you!
------------ ELEMENTARY -----------
2nd Grade Play: Logos South has an assembly tomorrow (11/16). Mrs. Hawthorne's class will perform a 2nd-grade classic, The Empty Pot. The play will begin at 8:30 a.m. at Logos South.

Family Friday: Next Friday, Nov 3rd. Half day of school; see more info on Family Friday linked in the Parent Handbook
------------ ELEMENTARY -----------
Homework-O-Meter: These will come home with your student on Friday, October 27. The Homework-O-Meter helps us assess how much work students do at home. Thank you in advance for helping with this survey. Your student will be returning this to school on Friday, November 3rd.
Winter Clothes: Be sure to send your children to school with warm clothes. We will have recess outside unless it is raining hard or below 20 degrees. Now would be an excellent time to ensure that winter clothing is labeled – just in case!
Elementary Honor Roll: This is a special recognition for outstanding academic achievement. Honor roll is achieved based on a student’s grades in the academic courses in a given quarter. An A honor roll award is for students who earn all A’s in the quarter. A/B honor roll is for students who earn no more than 2 B’s (and all the rest A’s) in the other subjects in the quarter.
Elementary Romance Talk: We speak to the 2nd - 6th grade students about elementary romance each year. We are glad to say that this has not been an issue that Logos elementary students have struggled with in recent memory, nor do we have grave concerns this year. Our primary goal is to maintain a positive school culture in which students do not feel pressure to “grow up” too fast in this area. Over the next couple of weeks, Mr. Becker and Mr. Brockwalder will visit classes for this year’s installment, and we thought it would be good for you all to know what we are saying to the students and our expectations in this area. First, the school policy for the elementary and secondary reads, “Public displays of romantic affection are not permitted at school or school activities.” Our interpretation of a public display of romantic affection is very narrow. Any singling out of a person of the opposite sex and anything you could do to earn yourself the title of “an item” falls into this category. Discussions with the 2nd - 6th graders usually begin with Mr. Becker/Mr. Brockwalder asking how old the students are, and then following up by asking how old they think they will be when they get married. Then, we move on to the application. The short form is that these students are many years away from getting married, and any preliminary negotiations are inappropriate in the elementary. We are strongly against silly talk about who likes whom and are thoroughly opposed to premature pairing up (in elementary and secondary). There is far too much fun and hard work for us to keep ourselves occupied with to give attention to cheap soap operas. Please don’t hesitate to let Mr. Becker or Mr. Brockwalder know if you have any questions or concerns.

Picture Retake Day (ALL CAMPUSES)!: The picture retake day for all Logos campuses is scheduled for Friday, October 6th, from 7:30 a.m.-9:00 a.m. in the Logos West gym.
Lost and Found at Logos West: A great many items are added each week to our lost and found (located in the breezeway of the NW doors). Please ensure your students regularly check the lost and found, as items left there for a week are moved to our “for sale” section. Please note the prices (there have been changes) and payment options (Cash App accepted; a cash box is coming soon!) on the posted signs. All proceeds go to the senior class, who maintain the lost and found. No payments will be accepted in the front office.
Homecoming! Please join us for Saturday night's Homecoming game! Our Knights football team is undefeated; help cheer them on to a 4th win! Dinner sales benefit the football team: brats with kraut and chips ($7), bacon topped mac & cheese ($3), and apple cake with browned butter frosting ($3); and the freshman class will be selling hot drinks. Alumni: stop by the Logos Knights tent for a free alum t-shirt and dinner ticket! The gate opens at 6:00, dinner at 6:30, and kickoff at 7:00.
Fight’n Knight Day will be Friday, Sep. 15, supporting our varsity football team. Wear your Fight’n Knight shirt to school.
- Do you need a different-sized Fight’n Knight shirt? If you are having an issue with the sizing/fit of your shirt, we may have alternate sizes available in the next order.
- We will be placing an order for additional Fight’n Knight Shirts next Wednesday, September 20th. Alternate size options are available. Use the following link to place your order. Fight’n Knight Shirt order.

Drama Production: Plan ahead to attend the varsity drama production of Beauty and the Beast next month. October 4-7 at 6:30 pm.
------------- ELEMENTARY -------------
6th Grade Play: This coming Friday morning, Miss Anderson’s 6th graders will perform their Shakespeare play Romeo and Juliet. The assembly will begin in the gym at 8:35. We will start with a short recitation by Mrs. Blum’s 3rd graders. All are welcome!
Elementary Study Tip for the Week: Plan ahead. Sit down with your child on Saturday and read over the HAS together. Talk about the tests and assignments with your child so that he is prepared before the week begins. A few minutes of discussion and study on Saturday morning can help take the pressure off in the middle of the week when the circus is in full swing. One elementary example is having your child learn the first 7 Latin and spelling words on Saturday. This puts them in the position of starting the following week ahead of the game.
------------- SECONDARY -------------
Secondary Assembly: Friday, September 15, from 11:45 a.m.-12:30 p.m., there will be a secondary worldview assembly titled “What is the Gospel?” by Jared Longshore. Parents are encouraged to come and then take their children out to lunch afterward! (Fathers….take a long lunch and join us!) This will be our first Family Friday (half day of school).

Secondary Study Tip of the Week: For 7th and 8th grade parents especially, ask your student to show you their daily planner. Are notes written in the daily planner that correspond with the homework assignments, quizzes, and tests? If the planner is blank, this may be a reason to initiate a conversation with your child.
