Good evening, Lafayette Families,
We are just over a week away from the start of a new school year, and we are so excited to welcome you back to Lafayette Elementary School!
The school supply lists are now available online and on our social media pages.
Mark Your Calendars:
Orientation: Thursday, August 1
Time: 4-7pm
4-5pm: Reserved for Kindergarten families
5-7pm: All teachers, grades K-5 will be available
Transition Day for Kindergarteners: Monday, August 5
First Day for All Other Students: Tuesday, August 6
Teacher assignments will be LIVE in PowerSchool on Tuesday morning at 10am. Kindergarten students will receive their assignment on Thursday at Orientation.
This year, our instructional day will begin promptly at 8:20am. Any student arriving after this time will be marked tardy and will need to be checked in at the front office with an adult.
We will continue our division-wide implementation of Responsibility-Centered Discipline (RCD). Our school-wide foundations are attached for you to review with your child. This initiative is part of our commitment to fostering a positive and supportive learning environment for all students.
