Good Evening Lafayette Families,
I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend and is ready to five into the week ahead with enthusiasm!
First and foremost, let's aim to start the week off on the right foot by ensuring our students arrive at school on time and ready to learn each day. We understand that unexpected circumstances may arise, so if your child will be absent, please don't forget to communicate with us. Your communication helps us provide the best support possible for your child during their absence (Attendance Notes).
Report cards for this grading period will be sent home on Tuesday, March 26. Please take some time to review the report card with your child, and feel free to reach out to their teacher if you have any questions or concerns.
A huge thank you to our incredible Lafayette cheerleaders and our supportive community for their enthusiastic turnout at our recent victory against the JM/Preschool team. Your support means the world to us! We'll be facing off against the winner of the HMES vs. WGMS game next week in the championship game on Wednesday, April 3, at JMHS at 6pm. We can't wait to see everyone there!
Mark your calendars for Thursday, April 11th, from 5-6:30pm for our Instructional Fun Night at Lafayette. We'll have engaging math and reading games, resources to support SOL preparation at home, and Science Fair projects on display. Plus, we'll be serving a delicious pasta dinner for those who register. Don't forget to register using the link below by April 4! (Instructional Fun Night, Dinner Registration)
Starting tomorrow morning, our SCA will be selling Mystery Eggs filled with sweet treats for $3 each. Students can bring in cash or a check made payable to Lafayette SCA if they'd like to purchase one for a classmate or staff member.
