Due to the threat of severe weather moving into our area, LRSD will dismiss school early today, all after-school activities are cancelled, and CARE will be closed. Elementary sites will dismiss at 1:30 p.m., followed by secondary schools at 2:30 p.m. This decision was made in the best interest of students and staff, in consultation with the National Weather Service, LRSD’s Emergency Management and Transportation teams, and surrounding districts. Please note that if tornado sirens are activated during these dismissal times, we will initiate our shelter-in-place procedures, and building doors will be locked until the threat has passed. Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize the safety and well-being of our students and staff. Please stay safe.


Calling all Volunteers!


🚨 Reminder! Students will be out tomorrow for a work/data day. However, LRSD offices will remain open if you need assistance. Enjoy your day off, students! 🎉

JES wrapped up Read Across America Week with a special guest reader in the Pavilion!! Shout out to Craig O’Neill for being the first to read in the new Pavilion. Always a treat to listen to him read! ❤️📚




Parents, if you see this Read Across America Bingo come home, have fun with it! The goal is to complete 20 squares. They don't have to be in a straight line. Write the name of the books you read on the back. And you can use up to 2 squares for one book. So...to be in the drawing, a minimum of 20 squares and 10 books on the back is needed. ❤️📚


Check it out!


Parents,
If the tornado sirens are going off, we can not legally let children check out until the threat has passed.
