LECC TIGER TALK
LECC eNewsletter February 3, 2022
Loveland City School District will be closed tomorrow, Friday February 4th
Hello LECC Tiger Cub Families!
We hope this email finds you well! This week, we had so much fun celebrating the 100th day of school in Kindergarten. Our KG Tiger Cubs counted, sorted, laughed, and shared all things 100! In Preschool, our Tiger Cubs continued to explore and to make connections with their peers around activities that we often enjoy during the Winter season! Lots of wintery PS masterpieces line our hallways to showcase our Tiger Cubs' artistic talents. You can check out pictures of all the great things this week on our LECC Twitter page!
Next week, our Tiger Cubs are invited to show off their LECC/Cincinnati Pride in celebration of all our hard work so far this school year along with the Cincy Bengals heading to the Super Bowl! Please check out the themes for each day in the below graphic. LCSD has also updated the school calendar. We will not have school on February 14th. Please look for updated plans from your child's teacher around their classroom's Valentine's Day activities!
Stay warm and we will see you all back on Monday! It’s a great day to be a LECC Tiger Cub!

COVID Updates for LECC (as of 01/31/2022)
Effective Monday, January 31, 2022, our masking policy will change to mask-optional for all students. This means our students in PreK-6, who were previously expected to mask, will now be mask-optional like our older students. The Ohio Department of Health has also said that schools are no longer required to do contact tracing, according to a memo you can read in full by following this link.
Going forward, the only time our staff will do contact tracing is when it is requested by Hamilton County Public Health or ODH because of an outbreak or cluster of COVID cases in one of our buildings.
Masks will still be required on all of our buses, per federal guidelines. Masking will continue to be recommended in our buildings. Families will still need to keep students home when they are sick and notify the school if they test positive for COVID-19. We will still be keeping track of seating assignments, maximizing physical distance, encouraging handwashing, and making sure our buildings are clean.
