Dear LES Families,
Fourth Quarter Starts Next Week
It is hard to believe that we are about to enter the 4th quarter of this school year. We have come so far over the course of this year. This has been a year of flexibility and change. I appreciate your ongoing support as we navigate this pandemic life together.
Third quarter ended Friday, April 9th. We have one quarter left in the school year! It is going to take collaboration, grit, and determination in order for our children to experience continued success and growth. As the days get warmer and summer break gets closer, we will need to be extra vigilant, supportive, and proactive in ensuring our students are engaged in learning. Let's end the year strong!
Thank you for all that you do! Words cannot express my gratitude for all that you do each and every day, and all that you have sacrificed over the course of this year for your child.

Important Update: School Issued Devices
Dear LES Families,
It is important that students not download anything non-school related to their devices. When this is done, it causes some computer and application issues. For example, when things are downloaded such as Roblox, etc. it disables the microphone and speakers. Additionally, when this happens the computer has to be reimaged by our IT department, which is not on site at LES.
Thank you for your support in keeping devices secure and in working condition for school use.
