Parents, Family Members and Students:
We are beyond excited to welcome our students back to campus on Wednesday, August 10.
As parents and guardians, we ask that you provide an email address to the school and check it daily; communicate daily with your student about academics and school climate; and monitor any and all social media they use.
To stay updated on L.C. Swain important information and events, please be sure to follow our social media, check out the Stallion Community Folder on our school's website www.LCSwainMS.org/Swain, and read our newsletters.

We look forward to working together with you and seeing our students soon.
