IB in the News
Again this year, the Cleveland Museum of Art is
working with Lomond teachers to infuse IB into the
class visits to the museum. Lara Mullen, a Boulevard
parent, leads the education programming for CMA.
She worked with our teachers at the beginning of the
year. Each grade level chose a specific time of year
to visit the museum based on a particular unit of
inquiry (planner). Ms. Mullen trained the docents on
the specific unit in order to tailor the visit to Lomond
School. Many of the visits focuson one or more key
concepts taught as part of the IB units. The
concepts are: reflection, responsibility, perspective,
connection, change, causation, function and form.
What a gift to have this wonderful curriculum
connection to the Cleveland Museum of Art. The
classes who have already gone to the museum are
reporting that the docents are well prepared and
the experience has been wonderful!

School Conferences
I heard so much positive feedback about the
conferences last week. I hope you were impressed
with the ‘Smart’ goals set by your child, the Learner
Profile self-evaluation and the work your child’s
teacher shared with you. We had 92% participation
and continue to follow up with those families who
have not been able to come in for a conference.
I want to encourage all of you to come to our Book
Fair Family Night on Wednesday, November 14,
between 5:30-7:30 p.m. Our PTO is sponsoring a
pizza dinner. Watch for the flyer and return the
form if you plan to participate. We will have a guest
appearance from Clifford the Big Red Dog!
I hope you all fared well the storm this week with
minimal or no damage to your homes. As we
head into the winter season, please be sure to
check the local news broadcasts for information on
school closings. If and when we are closed, be sure
to encourage your students to read at home!
