From the Principal
We seem to be in a pattern with snow days in the middle of the week on Wednesdays! I hope everyone stayed safe and warm on the day off! We started parent conferences this week and will continue through next Thursday from 3:15-4:00 PM each day. I hope all parents have made arrangements to meet with their child's teacher to see the progress made so far.
We are preparing for Pre-K and Kindergarten registration! Children will need to be 4 years old by September 30, in order to enter Pre-K, and 5 years old by September 30 for kindergarten. Pre-K and kindergarten registration for the 2023-2024 school year will be on March 8, from 9:00 AM-3:30 PM, and on March 9, from 9:00 AM-6:00 PM. Please call the school at 540-833-6916, to make an appointment to come to LEES with your future Pre-K or kindergarten student on one of those two dates. Our Pre-K and kindergarten teachers would love to meet your child and spend a little time seeing what they already know! You will need to bring your child's birth certificate and proof of residence when you come to LEES. For Pre-K students, we will also need proof of income (pay stub or W-2 form). We are excited to welcome our new friends to LEES for the 2023-2024 school year!
Just a reminder that if you are planning a pre-arranged family vacation during the school year, to notify the office and your child's teacher prior to the vacation starting for approval. Teachers can provide work for your child to turn in within five days of returning from the vacation in order for your child to be counted distance learning present-vacation. This is a new addition to the attendance policy that was recently approved by the School Board. Students who are out for COVID may now also complete classwork in order to be counted as distance learning present. Thank you for your help with attendance!
To celebrate the Super Bowl, students and staff are invited to wear their favorite sports team shirts/ sweatshirts to school on Thursday, Februaru 9! Also, there is No School for students on Friday, February 10, since teachers have a inservice day.
Enjoy your weekend!
Mrs. Ridder
