Dear Lockhart Families: As part of our Make A Wish campaign, the PTA is raffling off three huge items! In the past two years, they have raffled off a Power Pony and PS5. This year, they are upping their game with three major prizes. Just like any donation, all money will go towards our Make A Wish total. The three prizes for this year are a huge Mets ticket package valued at $800, a four pack of tickets to an Islanders game, and a Meta Quest 3S VR headset. The link to the raffle tickets are below. Remember, this is the same as making any kind of donation but you give yourself the chance to win a prize! The raffle will be ongoing for the next five weeks until we pull a winner on 12/22.

Dear Lockhart Families: As part of our Make A Wish campaign, we will be hosting a "Frozen Night" fundraiser on December 8, from 5:00-6:30. Students in grades K-5 can purchase tickets for $10, with all proceeds going to Make A Wish. This is a student only event (no parents) and will be capped at 150 students. During the event, students will be treated to two Frozen shorts, receive a cookie and a gift bag, and do some coloring and sing along activities! Staff will be here to have a great time with the kids and continue to raise money for a great cause. Kids are invited to wear pajamas to make the event even more special. Below is a flyer with a tear off to send in the money and a hard copy is going home. Once the 150 student limit is reached, we will not be able to accept any late entries or no walk ins. All money is due by 12/4.

Dear Lockhart Families: What a great start to our Make A Wish campaign! Hundreds of kids and family members from Lockhart packed the back field for our Walk A Thon! This promises to be the most special one yet. The good news is, the cookies and magnet sales will continue this week! We will be selling cookies at all lunch periods for $1 and the special hand made magnets made by our 5th Graders are one for $3 and two for $5. Students will have the opportunity to buy this week. Also, the big hit was our Lucky Ducks! There are still plenty of opportunities to buy a duck and get a raffle ticket for a special experience with our teachers. Lucky Ducks will be sold by our Student Council in every classroom from 12/3-12/9. Winners for the raffles will be picked on 12/10. Thank you again!

Dear Lockhart Families: Tomorrow, 11/18 is our 37th Annual Walk A Thon, the official kickoff event of Make A Wish! Following dismissal, students and staff can gather on the back lawn to drum up excitement for our Make A Wish campaign. Students will get lap sheets and stickers to record their laps and there will be plenty of items for sale with all proceeds going to our Make A Wish donation. As always, there will be hot cocoa, cookies, and items for sale from our Student Council. The new addition to this year is the student raffles. With the purchase of the "Lucky Ducks," students will receive a raffle ticket to potentially win an experience/activity with our teachers. Many teachers have come up with fun activities that will take place at either 8:00 or during lunch/recess. An updated list of the activities is below as well as the list of items for sale. Lucky Ducks will also be sold by the Student Council in December so there are plenty of opportunities to purchase! There will also be a face painting table with Ms. Ahearne and two special guests. We hope everyone can attend and make this our best Walk A Thon yet!

Dear Lockhart Families: It's incredible to even think we are here already but it's Make A Wish season! If there is one part of the Lockhart community that is near and dear to everyone's heart, it's Make A Wish. This will be our 37th year of running a Make A Wish campaign, the longest running school campaign in the country. Throughout the year, we do so much to give back to others, but Make A Wish is the most meaningful and impactful to our students. This is not just about raising money. Our students, staff, and families all know that they have a direct impact on one family's life, giving them a memory and hope in a time when they might not have much of that. Every year we ask for your donations in various ways. Whether it be a straight donation, purchasing raffle tickets, buying items from Student Council, or participating in our Make A Wish events. Any way you contribute goes directly to helping a family and most importantly, a child, who is going through something no one should. Our kids know this, which makes it even more meaningful to them. For the next 7 weeks, our collection will run in all of these ways. More emails will come out about our annual Walk-A-Thon event on Tuesday, 11/18, the items being raffled off by the PTA, and other events we have planned. For now, below is the link to our donation website and the QR code. Last year, we set a record with over $15000 in total donations and we hope to break that record again!

Dear Grade 4 and 5 Parents: During the year, several staff members run after school clubs. We are happy to announce the return of our SADD Club for our 4th and 5th grade students, with a new Mindfulness component! SADD empowers students to make healthy choices and lead positive lives. The club’s mission is to provide young people with the tools to prevent destructive decisions related to underage drinking, drug use, and unsafe behaviors — while encouraging kindness, leadership, and community involvement. This year, students will also explore mindfulness to support their emotional well-being. If you are interested in having your child join the club, please use the link below to sign up. This memo was also sent home via hard copy.

Dear Lockhart Families: This morning was one of the most special events of the year, with our annual Veterans Day Ceremony. Over 20 Veterans from AMVETS Post 88 and VFW Post 7763 joined us, so we can give thanks for their service. Along with our Student Council, two veterans, Mr. Colfer and Mr. Scheiner spoke beautifully about service and leadership. Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor Joe Saladino also spoke to the crowd, reinforcing the fact that the freedoms we enjoy today were due to the service and dedication of our veterans. Our 5th Grade Chorus performed at the end, and to finish it off, the veterans walked through the canyon of students waving American Flags, giving high fives to all with the song "God Bless the USA" playing over the speakers. It truly is a moving moment that brings tears to everyone's eyes. We want to thank everyone for being a part of this special day. Below is the link to the Roll Call Video we show during the ceremony, showing all the veterans that are part of the Lockhart family. We hope you enjoy.

Dear 5th Grade Chorus Families: On Monday, November 10th at 9:15, we have our annual Veterans Day Ceremony at Lockhart. During this important ceremony, we gather to honor those who have sacrificed their life for ours. As part of the ceremony, our 5th Grade Chorus and members of the Student Council perform songs and have speaking parts. In addition to our honored Veteran guests, our Grades 3-5 students, members of the Board of Education, District Administration, PTA Board, and local politicians will be in attendance. We also invite no more than 2 family members for each member of the 5th grade chorus. While we wish we could invite more, we can only fit so many in the GP room. If you choose to attend, the doors will open at 9:05, with the ceremony beginning promptly at 9:15. As stated above, no child can have more than two family members attend and please, no younger siblings. We hope you understand this, as we are lucky enough to be able to invite as many as we do.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Dear Lockhart Families: Tomorrow is Election Day which means no school for kids. However, our building will be open for voting and the PTA Bake Sale. Come down for some delicious treats and support the PTA!

Dear Lockhart Families: We will be utilizing the blacktop for the parade. There are cones around the perimeter. Please line the grass as we want to keep the blacktop clear for the students and staff. We will be exiting the basketball court doors, walking along the blacktop, entering in the Grade 2/3 dismissal door, and then doing a second lap.
