Principal Mayronne's Weekly Update: 04/06/2025

Good Evening Lafayette Lions and Families,  

I hope you all had a restful weekend, and we look forward to everyone returning tomorrow for a full week.

As we enter SOL season starting April 14, we want our students to perform and feel their best.

This week, an SOL testing guide will be sent home with students in grades 3-5. The brochure provides helpful tips for both students and families to prepare for SOL testing, including strategies for creating a study routine, encouraging relaxation, and ensuring students are well-rested and ready for test day.
