Welcome back to school!
We have been hard at work getting things ready for school to resume. Teachers officially return to work tomorrow and we will continue getting things ready for Friday, August 7th when all of our 1st and 2nd graders, and Group B 3rd to 5th graders come to school. On Monday, Aug 10th, we will welcome our Group A 3rd to 5th graders and 1st and 2nd graders back.
BUS RIDERS
*Drivers will call parents this week.
*If your child will NOT be riding the bus, and will be a car rider, please understand they will be a car rider for the whole the first 9 weeks.
*We have our buses set below the capacity and can't change back and forth.
DAY CARE RIDERS
*Parents, we have asked the daycares for their lists of students but we want to confirm with you.
*If your child is picked up by a daycare van, please be sure that you email becky.forbes@lpsb.org by Wed so we can be sure they are on our list.
CAR RIDER CAR TAGS
*Due to the increased amount of car riders, we have adjusted how we will distribute car tags.
*We will have car tag pick up on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. We will post the details and times. (Still finalizing the times and getting tags ready.)
*Please understand we may have to adjust times once school starts if we need more time to load and unload students.
SUPPLY FEE PAYMENT
*The Online payment portal is open and you may begin paying supply fee online.
*Call us if you need any help with making your payment.
VIRTUAL STUDENT SUPPLY PICKUP
*We will have a drive through supply pick up for full virtual students Wednesday or Thursday.

SPIRIT SHIRTS
*We have spirit shirts ready to sell. Student shirts are $10.

*Shirts will be sent home with students once we get payment.
*Students can wear their spirit shirts on Wednesday and Thursdays to allow both A and B groups a day to wear their shirts.

PK & K TESTING
*When you come for your child's testing appointment, turn right into the first parking lot and follow the signs. Park near our gym.
*The K or PK teachers will come out and get your child and then walk them out when they are finished testing.

*Parents are not allowed to enter the building and will remain in you car while waiting.
