Lamar Elementary (team of 4 and Kristen Belcher, principal) will be here all day for a Foundations site visit. They want to get ideas on arrival, transitions, hallways, lunches, recess, and dismissal. Along with instructional practices and structures. They will be walking the hallways and will come in classrooms. Please welcome them and answer any questions they might have.
