From the Principal's Desk
Today is the 1st day of the last quarter of the 2020-2021 school year! It is hard to believe that we are already making plans for the end of this year and working on students returning in the Fall! Report card will be available to view in ParentVUE at 4:00 PM on Monday, April 19.
Just a reminder that this Friday, April 16 is an Asynchronous Student Day for all students. All students will log into Morning Meeting at 8:00 AM, and then work on asynchronous assignments for the remainder of the day.
We are excited to welcome back hybrid students for Tuesday-Friday in-person learning beginning on Tuesday, April 20. Parents - please make sure to check for updated transportation information in ParentVUE on Sunday, April 18. Routes, stops, and pick-up/drop-off times may have to be adjusted to accommodate the change in in-person learning days.
We are looking forward to an exciting end to the school year - as always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Any pictures of students engaged in learning activities would be great - but we are especially looking for:
- Pictures of students at their 'workstations' (both the Pinterest ones and the unfinished basement ones!)
- Pictures of students working with their favorite pet or stuffed animal.
- Pictures of students working on a new or re-discovered hobby.
- Any other great shots you have of Waterford Students (masked and un-masked!)

Student Attendance
This year we will be using ParentVUE as our primary tool for families to communicate student absences, tardies, and early dismissals for our school. You will find the Report Attendance function in both the mobile app and web version for all your LCPS students. Please review this guide for instructions on how to use this tool to report daily or future attendance. Note that this function only reports attendance to the front office - teachers will not see any notes submitted through this process. Additional information on the process, including a short video demonstration can be found on the ParentVUE Attendance Options page.
For any requests to update previous days’ attendance, please continue to follow our normal process of notifying Mrs. Murter in the main office by email at Karen.Murter@lcps.org
