We are looking forward to a great season of running at Lipscomb! Our Run Team is for all grade levels.

Parents will park in the Civitan parking lot and walk the students to the concession stands. Mr. Taylor and Mr. Lawson will walk the students to the track from there.

After Run Team is over for the day, the P.E. Teachers will take the students into the gym and dismiss them to their classes for the day.

The P.E. Teachers will pass out the student lanyards/tags during P.E. the week before Run Team starts, and the students will be responsible for bringing them to Run Team each morning. The tags will keep up with the students’ mileage over the course of five weeks.

Stage Design meets on Wednesday mornings before school, and is only for fifth grade students. There are two sessions: fall and spring.

The Stage Design group will be involved in designing and creating stage decor, costumes, and props for two Chorus/Dance performances throughout the year. We will brainstorm, problem solve, choose color schemes, design, create, and present our work all while working as a team. The goal of this group is to explore art and design aspects of theater, while learning helpful skills in art and collaboration. We will coordinate our design work with the music and dance performances.

A total of 15 students will be selected for the Stage Design group to ensure collaboration opportunities. Students will be selected based on level of interest. However, if there are too many applicants, students will be selected at random from a pool of interested students.

The Lipscomb Student Council is a service learning and leadership program for fourth and fifth grade students. Our Student Council focuses on helping people in our school, our sister school (Cole Elementary School in Nashville), and in our community. Two student representatives are selected from each fourth and fifth grade class by their peers. Interested students write an essay and give an oral presentation through Life Skills class explaining their ideas and motivations for becoming a Student Council representative. LES Student Council members have weekly lunch meetings and visit an assigned “buddy class” (kindergarten-third grade classroom) regularly to communicate the initiatives of the council.
