Week at a Glance
I am happy to report that testing for your sixth graders is done for the year! After a long two weeks of intense focus and perseverance, your students did an amazing job of showing what they know, and thinking critically about challenging questions. I am very proud of them and their hard work and dedication to learning. I hope they have enjoyed having no homework and have been relaxing at home each evening.
This is surely a time to celebrate, as the most challenging and stressful part of the year is now over.
I also want to thank each of you for the love, joy, and good humor with which your students come into class every day. Your love and support of them is evident, and the positive energy they carry with them each day, infectious.
Thank you times a million, I don`t think we as teachers, get to honor or thank you all enough throughout the year, but know we appreciate all you do for our students each day.

Students To and From School
Dear Parents of LCE Sixth Graders, It is hard to believe that there is a little less than two months remaining in the school year. While your children are fast becoming junior high school students, it is still necessary to provide them with guidance and supervision to ensure their safety both here at LCE and off campus. We are reaching out to you to help us make sure all students are provided with the safe environment they need while they continue to develop and mature. While students are on campus during school hours, LCE staff members are present to assist students in making good decisions and provide discipline when required. Incidents occurring at Memorial Park and other off-campus locations after school, have been brought to our attention over the last few months. Unfortunately, our school cannot provide supervision off school grounds. To prevent conflicts occurring off campus, it is our recommendation that students be picked up by a guardian or caregiver from the LCE campus rather than a public place. We also want to remind parents and students that school disciplinary action does apply while students are on their way home from school. For example, sixth graders will receive strikes for inappropriate behavior occurring after school and can even be suspended in accordance with our disciplinary plan. We ask parents to use their best judgement moving forward in regards to after school plans for their children. Discuss appropriate behavior and strategies for avoiding conflict and reaching out for help with your children. Please do not hesitate to contact your child’s teachers if you have questions or concerns. Thank you for your help in providing students with the support and care they need. Sincerely, LCE Administration and Sixth Grade Team
