I hope that you enjoy the long Labor Day weekend. We are excited to have your children back at Lounsberry on Thursday. Please remind students that everyone will enter the gym when they get off the bus so they can find their homeroom teachers. Please have students print or write out their schedules for the first day. They will not be able to access them on their phones.
Any students who are being dropped off should enter through doors down by the softball fields. Parents who are dropping students should please follow the signs at the top of the parking lot for student drop off. This year we are asking parents to make a left turn at the top of the hill and proceed to the back row closest to the grass for drop offs. This will allow us to keep the parking lot clear and reduce the number of cars waiting on Sammis road in the mornings. Students can be dropped off starting at 7:50. Please follow the line all the way down the hill and drop students by our staff who will be waiting for them.
Dismissal will be at 2:45. Parents who choose to pick up their children should arrive at 2:30 to sign them out. Pickups will be released starting around 2:35.
A couple of reminders to help things go smoothly on Thursday and Friday. (1). Please make sure students know their student ID numbers. It is the same five digit number they have used since they entered the district. (2). Please make sure they know their bus route. We don’t use the pictures and symbols anymore so please make sure they know their routes, it will make dismissal easier.
Teachers will be using Schoology again this year. Please take a look at this short video that provides directions on how to access Schoology.
