Welcome to LJHS!
News from Principal Lori Davis
THANK YOU!
Thank you for an AWESOME first week of school! This year will continue to be shaped by our transformational efforts, for our students. Our accomplishments for this year will be monumental and we will continue our focus on building a legacy of excellence for all students at LJHS. We know that every moment is a teachable moment and strive to work with parents to mold hard working, respectful, and well-educated students. LJHS provides each student with a safe and nurturing environment that promotes excellence in learning and citizenship. The LJHS team is committed to transitioning students’ social and academic development towards college, career, and life readiness.
#LISDCHAMPIONS
We are CHAMPIONS for our students and have developed Goals for LJHS to allow our students to ACHIEVE at their highest potential!
- We will increase our rigor and provide relevant and aligned instruction to increase growth. Every student (1-8) will make 1.5 years progress in Math and Reading.
- We will increase our students attendance to 98% for the 2017-2018 school year.
- We will maintain a safe and positive environment for students and staff and community stakeholders by decreasing office discipline referrals by 35% each 9 week grading period as compared to the previous year.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
DROP OFF and PICK UP PROCEDURES
CAR LINE PROCEDURES: If you drive your child to school, please drop-off and pick-up at the BACK of Lockhart Junior High School at the 6th grade gym. We need to reduce the traffic waiting in line on City Line Road so that traffic can keep moving. To help facilitate this movement, we are asking that all car traffic proceed straight down Maple to the soccer fields parking lot and loop around and proceed back up Maple to turn right into
the LJHS driveway. This will help draw traffic away from City Line Road.
When turning into LJHS driveway, proceed all the way down to the loading/unloading zone. Students may ONLY be dropped off and picked up in the designated area at one of the numbered drop-off or pick-up zones. For students’ safety please use the marked designated spaces only.
The supervisors will direct your child where to go. To facilitate the drop-off procedure, please keep the line moving, and allow your child to exit on his or her own. You do not need to exit the car.
AFTER SCHOOL PICK-UP: A staff member will greet you at the entrance to the school at Maple Street and enter your student’s name onto a list that will be displayed in the 6th grade gym. When a student sees and hears their name, they will proceed to the loading zone. It is imperative that students are listening and watching for their name. If you arrive at a space and your student has not exited the building, we will ask you to pull up to the designated waiting area. This area will be designated with cones.
Watch for students in the crosswalk and students riding their bikes to school. Please drive SLOWLY. The school zone is a CELL-PHONE FREE zone. Please refrain from using your phone at any time while dropping off and picking up your child.
