The school administrative teams worked diligently to evaluate all options for recovering instructional minutes lost due to the wintery weather. In doing so, they aimed to meet state requirements while striving to preserve holidays on the calendar for both staff and students. Although there was limited flexibility in how to make up for lost time, the campus administration worked collaboratively to identify the best possible solutions for our K-12 community.
Here are the changes to the LS calendar:
The school day at the Lower School will be extended by 15 minutes starting Monday, Feb. 3, through the end of the school year. Dismissal will be at 3:45. Carpool will end at 4:00. LS families needing to travel between LS and our other two campuses at dismissal time will be given a 15-minute grace period for pick-up at the end of the day. Students will go to aftercare but families will not be charged.
Lagniappe classes will be held from 4:00-5:00. Aftercare will still end at 6:00. Morning care continues as before.
LS will dismiss at noon on March 19, May 22 and May 23.
Aftercare ends on May 21.
