Rocking and Rolling to Infinity and Beyond
We are ROARing!!!
Dear Gale-Bailey Pride,
I am so thankful for you. I love our community. Even in tough times, we are here for one another. I am so thankful to be surrounded by so many hard-working staff members that would do anything for the pride. During this season and this time it is especially important to count our blessings and name them one by one. We have a lot to be grateful for.
I am especially thankful that our scholars will never need to go without. We had an overwhelming amount of donations given for the Thanksgiving Food Drive, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
Enjoy your holiday break and remember to stay safe.

Important Information and Resources to Get You Started
Virtual Learning Center at Lackey
To aid with virtual learning, a family internet center at Henry E. Lackey High School will open starting Wednesday, Sept. 2, to provide a space for students who need access to WiFi. The study hall-type space will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday, in Lackey’s gym with desks socially distanced. Space is limited and must be reserved between 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. the day before you want to book a space by calling 301-934-7213. Families can schedule up to five consecutive days at once.
Parents/guardians will have to fill out a health screening for themselves and their children before going into the center.
Students using the space must sign in and wear a face-covering/mask when entering and leaving the gym, and to and from the restrooms. Students must log on and stay connected to their scheduled instruction. A limited number of desktop computers will be available. Students should not make disruptive sounds or behaviors and are asked to use headphones or earbuds.
Parents/guardians will park in designated areas and must remain with their child(ren) while at the school unless the student is 16 or older. Parents will sign in using a picture ID and wear a face-covering/mask when entering and leaving the gym, and to and from the restrooms. Other requirements include that the student arrives and leaves on time (no earlier than 7 a.m., no later than 7 p.m.), and that cell phones are silenced. Calls may take place outside of the gym. Parents are asked to ensure their child(ren) is not disruptive and should bring lunch, water, and snacks for their child. Adults can bring their own technology devices and use the CCPS BYOD WiFi. They should use headphones or earbuds while in the family internet center.
