All parents and community members are welcome to attend our School Advisory Council (SAC) meetings. The SAC serves our school in many ways. We are a body of faculty, staff, business partners, and parent volunteers who help our principal in formulating and evaluating our School Improvement Plan, conducting annual surveys to solicit input from stakeholders, and disbursing recognition funds the school earns. All meetings are open to the public, regardless of whether you serve on the council. We hold eight meetings a year, third Thursdays at 2:15 p.m., simultaneously in the Learning Commons and on Teams. The next meeting will be held on May 19.

For information see the SAC page on Landrum’s website https://www-lms.stjohns.k12.fl.us/sac/ or contact Chair Lynn Coles at lynn.coles@stjohns.k12.fl.us.

The PTO has been honored to provide support for the Landrum staff this year. There is no slowing down for MayCember, as we head into a busy and exciting Staff Appreciation Week, beginning Monday. We asked for assistance and YOU answered!! Boy did you answer. Via our sign-up genius, we have collected $6560! Due to the rising cost of absolutely everything, please know how much we appreciate your generosity. Using our Survivor ! theme, we survived this year… There will be door prizes, lunch brought in, ice cream treats and a special survivor box with school essentials for each staff member. Not to be missed will be the Staff lounge and mailroom walls papered with notes of thanks from students and parents!! Extra funds not used next week will go to the extreme makeover and beautification of our Landrum Staff Lounge this summer. We can’t wait to show you pictures as that gets underway! Wishing all our Lion families a restful weekend!
