Welcome to the TLNA Education Corner! This will be a regular feature of the newsletter, serving as a vehicle to tell you about issues related to our wonderful Lapham Elementary School that are of particular interest to our community.One of the first things that was suggested to me was that there could be improved communication between the association and the school. This newsletter feature is one small way to help.

At present I am gathering issues to discuss with the committee, and am actively seeking input on issues on which Lapham and the community, through the TLNA, might mutually benefit by working together. There are a few candidate issues about which you will be hearing more soon. These include:

ˇ New playground equipment for Lapham
ˇ The Lapham School Garden
ˇ Infrastructure and wiring
ˇ Working relationship with the PTG
To discuss these or any new ideas or issues, please feel free to call me at 251-5929, or email me at [email protected]. I am actively soliciting input as we work to address the issues of greatest importance to our community.

I know from talking with many people that I echo the thoughts of parents throughout our neighborhood when I say that I am proud to have a school of the quality of Lapham Elementary right here. And, as many of you know, our community has been instrumental in the successful reopening and support of Lapham. LetŐs work to make it an even better part of our community.

-Pete Nelson, Education Committee Chair
