Birthday Celebration Guidelines
Birthdays are special days for all of our little Jaguars, but we need your help in celebrating them in adherence with the LSR7 Board of Education policies. These policies have been implemented for the safety of all students and staff (food allergies, latex allergies, etc.). Please read the following excerpt from the R-7 Elementary Handbook regarding celebrations:

Prepped and Ready Parenting Series
Parenting is hard, and parenting teens can be even harder. Children’s Mercy has released a free video series, Prepped and Ready: Experts Edition, to help with the transition into parenting teenagers available online. For more information, CLICK HERE.
FREE ENGLISH CLASSES FOR LSR7 PARENTS
The English Language Development department is working to spread the word about an opportunity for parents this year. The department is hosting free adult English classes for LSR7 parents. The free classes are from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays at Pleasant Lea Middle School. Please contact Melisha Colon, ELD Coordinator, at melisha.colon@lsr7.net with questions.
