School Supplies
If families ordered an EduKit, the kits will be delivered directly to LPS and placed in your child's classroom.
Driveline Procedures
To keep the Pick up/Drop off area moving and get students into the building faster, we ask that parents/guardians remain in their vehicle. A staff member will open the door to welcome and escort your child into the building.
If you wish to walk your child to the school door, get off for a hug and kiss goodbye, we ask that you park in the designated parking lot.
At pickup, please display your Driveline number. A staff memeber will enter the Driveline number to alert your child's teacher that you are on campus.
At pickup, please reamin in your vehicle. A staff member will walk your child to your car as they are release from their classroom.
