The shelter in place has been lifted and we are prepping for dismissal. Please be prepared for some dismissal delays to allow for First Student to get students home safely.
Families,
As soon as the tornado warning was issued for our area we initiated our severe weather alert protocols. Students are all sheltering in place and are safe. They did a fantastic job taking cover quickly! We will update when the warning has expired.
Hello Lee Families!
Please see the following message from Nurse Lindsey:
Dear Lee Parents and Guardians,
As we approach the end of the school year, I’d like to send a friendly reminder that all student medications stored at school must be picked up by 3:15 p.m. on the last day of school, Friday, May 30, 2025.
In accordance with district policy, any medications not picked up by this deadline will be properly disposed of.
A letter with additional details was sent home with your child at the beginning of May. If you did not receive it or have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me directly.
It has been a pleasure caring for your children this year. I wish you and your family a safe, restful, and well-deserved summer break.
Warm regards,
Nurse Lindsey

Hello Lee Families,
This morning at about 8:35 we experienced a power issue associated with a blown transformer that resulted in flashing lights and subsequent loss of power in areas of our building. Due to the medical needs of several students we quickly adapted our arrival procedures to have students enter through an area of the building without flashing lights. Students are all safe and in classrooms and utility crews are working swiftly to restore power to the building. Repairs are being completed as the message is being sent out to you all, and we should be back to full power in the building shortly.
Thanks,
Lee Staff

Hi lions,
Next week is Teacher Appreciation week. Our teachers are the best in the business and we are so excited to celebrate them! If you would like to help spread the love, we have set up an Amazon wishlist with some goodies and supplies to spoil our teachers and thank them for everything they do for our student.
