Principal's Message
Dear Cool Cat Family—
It is hard to believe that we are preparing to celebrate another holiday season. This is a special time of year at Lewisville Elementary. The students are excited about the approaching holiday, and the atmosphere is absolutely magical.
Let us remember our military servicemen and servicewomen as they continue to serve their country, especially during this time of year.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish each of you a joyful holiday season and a Happy New Year!
Angie Choplin, Principal

- They have not vomited for at least 24 hours.
As you are aware, school is occasionally closed, delayed, or released early due to hazardous road conditions. In the event of inclement weather, official school closings will be announced on WSJS, WXII, WGHP-TV, Cable Channel 2, and a notice will be posted on the school system website - www.wsfcs.k12.nc.us, Facebook and Twitter.

Morning Car Rider Reminders:
- Please remember to pull your vehicle forward as you have the opportunity to do so.
- Should you be the only car in the line, we ask that you continue to pull forward to the NO CELL PHONE SIGN. This will allow for additional vehicles to arrive behind you and not create overflow onto Arrow Leaf Drive.
- At times, the line will be long. We know some of our younger students take longer to exit the car at the beginning of the year. Please exercise patience and do not pull out of the line and pass cars in the second lane. This procedure prevents students or adults from being hit crossing the parking lot.
- Our car rider team will be utilizing signs during heavy traffic periods that ask you to pull forward or to stop. This additional precaution has been added to help effectively communicate with drivers.
- If at all possible, please have students sit on the right hand side of the car. Book bags should be prepared and students should not be eating breakfast. Finally, we ask that drivers refrain from using their cellular telephones while driving on campus. This is for the safety of our students, staff and any persons walking into the building.
Yearbook Time!!!
Also...please remember to send all of your amazing photos throughout the year to:
A very special THANK YOU to all the volunteers who helped out with Grandparents’ Day! This was a huge success and we greatly appreciate the help!
