1. LAUNCH (our after-school program) will kick off on September 9th. Spots will be limited. Let your child's teacher or the office know if you need a registration packet for your child.
2. Students are considered chronically absent if they miss more than 10% of school days - for any reason. That's about 2 days per month. We want to work with families to minimize absences. Please contact Dr. Elliott at elliottl@loudoncounty.org with any questions or if you need support.
3. We're always recruiting volunteers to greet students as they arrive each morning. If your family, church group, business, or organization wants to sign up to volunteer once or on a regular basis, contact Mrs. Weaver at weaverg@loudoncounty.org.
4. We had our first fire drill last week and will have several more safety drills this week. We will practice our shelter-in-place weather drill and have a bus safety lesson with our transportation department.
5. We will start recording conduct grades for all students this week. Conduct grades are a way for us to better track and support students who are struggling with behaviors. Our focus is always on teaching students appropriate behaviors.
6. Our fall book fair kicks off on Friday, September 4th! More details will be shared about eWallet and specific schedules.
7. Students are already earning points in their Parent DIG Point Banks! We are making some changes to the program and will post updated information soon!
8. If you are still struggling to connect to "Rooms" on the Loudon County Schools app, please let us know! Reach out to your child's teacher or the office. We are working through those issues with Apptegy and our technology department.
Have a wonderful week!


























1. We have ice cream in stock and will begin ice cream sales at lunch. First through fifth graders may purchase ice cream any day. Kindergarten students may purchase ice cream on Fridays only. Ice cream is $1.
2. We will start marking students tardy this week. Students receive a tardy slip if they are not in class at the 8:00 bell. Tardies can accumulate toward absences and truancy. Be sure to drop students off in plenty of time to walk to their classrooms before the bell. If students are eating breakfast at school, they need to be dropped off by 7:40.
3. Please establish a regular dismissal transportation plan with your children. If changes are necessary, contact the school office as early in the day as possible. It's always good to let teachers know in the Rooms app as well, but because they are actively teaching, they may miss those messages.
4. Be sure to return registration forms as soon as possible. All students are considered full-pay for breakfast and lunch until they are approved for free or reduced prices. It's also crucial that we have updated health information and emergency contacts for each child.
5. Now that all K-5 students have attended for their staggered start day, we will not allow parents to walk students to class each morning. We will have staff at the front of the building to help escort students who are still learning the routine.
6. Review our maps and instructions for drop off and pick up. Note that school board policy prohibits parents from arriving for pick up before 2:30. https://les.loudoncounty.org/o/les/page/parking-and-traffic-flow
7. LAUNCH (our after school program) will kick off on September 9th. Spots will be limited.
