Snow Day Makeup Information - REVISED 4-13-18
LCS received an official communication from the Michigan Department of Education on April 13, 2018 regarding inclement weather make up days.
On behalf of all county school districts, the Lapeer County ISD filed a waiver requesting that additional days be forgiven, and today’s MDE communication formally approved that request.
Therefore, several of the previously identified inclement weather make up days will be adjusted as follows:
- May 4, 2018 will be a non-attendance day for students and staff on the year round schedule (this remains a scheduled day for traditional calendar students and staff)
- May 25, 2018 will be a non-attendance day for students and staff for both the traditional AND year round schedules
- June 15, 2018 will be the last scheduled student attendance day for both the traditional AND year round schedules

#TurrillTough means...
We think that each one of us is strong individually but we are even stronger when we work together.
Did you know that our third graders this year are going to be growing cabbage. Yes...cabbage. They're going to have the chance to earn $1,000 in scholarship money if their's grows to be the largest head of cabbage in the state. Cool!
But even better...they will all have the chance to grow their cabbage to eventually donate to our local food pantry, Stone Soup, next fall when we get back to school. Their efforts will benefit people in our community and hopefully help them see that we are all a part of our community and can do things to help make it better!!
That's being Turrill Tough!!
