A Message from Mrs. Belcher:
Leopard families,
This week is GEN TX Week! We encourage students to participate in our spirit days throughout the week as we learn about college and career readiness. Please see the flyer below. We also have our Family Reading Night this Thursday, November 16th from 5:30-7:00. This is an event your family will not want to miss out on! See below for the details. Lastly, this Wednesday, we have a Spirit Day/Night at Shake Shack. A part of the proceeds will be donated back to Lamar.
We have lots of lost and found items. We will be placing them on the stage this week for students to look for their missing items during P.E. Students will be given an opportunity to look Tuesday through Friday. After Friday, all items will be donated. Please remember to label all of your child's items. This helps us in getting them back to the correct student.
Next week is our fall break; therefore, there will not be any school. We hope each of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving break and are surrounded by those you love.
We have been enjoying our Watch D.O.G.S volunteering on campus. We now have our online sign-up ready to go. This sign up will be housed on this newsletter each week. Feel free to sign up to volunteer and or feel free to volunteer for more than one date. All volunteers must have an approved volunteer form on file. Please click the link below to find out more details.
We look forward to another great week!
Kristen Belcher, Principal

Cellphone Policy:
The Conroe ISD Board adopted new guidelines regarding student cell phone use during the October Board meeting. While it is not a substantial guideline change at the elementary level, there are changes in which parents need to be aware. Our Foundations team is working to ensure that these procedures are being implemented on our campus and that we are helping students adapt to these changes. The student handbook is currently being updated to reflect these changes. The new guidelines state the following:
Cell phones and smartwatches may be used respectfully and responsibly before school and after school.
Cell phones and smartwatches should not be used to capture video, audio, or images at school or on the bus.
Cell phones and smartwatches should be set on silent mode and kept in backpacks, lockers, or other designated storage areas and should not be visible during school hours including instructional time, reward time, free time, lunch, and in the hallways.
Use of cell phones and smartwatches may be permitted in extenuating circumstances with permission from a staff member. (ex. to notify parent/guardian of a late bus)
