Principal Wheeler's Weekly Update: 11/03/2024

Good evening, Lafayette Families,

I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful weekend and is ready for the upcoming four-day week! Just a few quick reminders and updates as we head into a busy month:

  • There will be no school on Tuesday, November 5, so please plan accordingly. Interims will be sent home with students on Friday, November.

  • Join us on Wednesday, November 13, from 5-6:30 PM for our “Reading Under the Stars” event! We’d love to see our students in their comfy pajamas with their favorite book. The evening will include therapy dogs in the library for students to read with, story-time with staff, popcorn, crafts, and a special “Reading Under the Stars” area in the gym. It’s sure to be a memorable night, and we’re looking forward to seeing everyone there!

  • A quick reminder on the importance of punctuality: school begins promptly at 8:20 am, and arriving on time sets a positive tone for the day. Please continue to inform us of any absences due to illness or unforeseen circumstances.

Upcoming Events:

  • November 4: School Board Meeting

  • November 5: School Not in Session (Election Day)

  • November 11: School Not in Session (Veterans' Day)
