Lakeland Christian School
One of the core values of LCS is the belief that we are partnering with parents in the Christian education of their children. We believe that mutual respect, communication and involvement by all partners is essential for success of our mission.LCS is a school. We believe that being a Christian school and being a top-flight academic institution should not be mutually exclusive. On the contrary, we take the mandate of Colossians 3:23 that calls us to strive to be the best. We provide a variety of rigorous, engaging, academic and co-curricular activities that enable students to identify and express the full range of their unique gifts and abilities.Elementary Orientation Plans for August 10
This year, Elementary will offer two orientation options:
- On Campus – August 10 at 4:15 PM, 5:30 PM or 7:00 PM (Each session has a limited capacity so you must sign up.) While space is limited for each on-campus session, there are several time slots that will hopefully align with your availability. Please attend one session for each of your children in Elementary (K4-5th grade). After you register, please write down your times for each meeting and the location.
- Zoom Call – August 10 at 11:00 AM or 11:45 AM (You need to sign up for a specific time slot.) If you prefer not to come to campus, please choose this option. Each Zoom session will include the teacher and other parents from the class (not individually). If you choose the Zoom Q & A Orientation time, please read the parent packet ahead of time that we will email you and note any questions. Each Zoom Q & A will last 20-30 minutes.
Parents who have a K4-5th grade student will be sent a link to sign up for a time to attend Parent Orientation. If you do not receive a link by Tuesday, July 28, please contact mhannum@lcsonline.org. Group size will be limited to allow for social distancing. Students should not attend these events. There will be sessions at 4:15 PM, 5:30 PM or 7:00 PM. New and returning families are welcome to sign up for one of these sessions (one session for each of your elementary children). These sessions should not last more than 50 minutes. For parents who cannot attend in person, Q & A times will be offered online at 11:00 AM and 11:45 AM. This is not a full presentation. We will send you a link to register and then log-in information as we get closer to this date.
Elementary Open House Plans for August 11
Meet The Teacher Day: will be on Tuesday, August 11. Parents who have a K4-5th grade student will be sent a link to sign up for a time to meet the teachers on campus or via Zoom. Group size is limited to allow all to socially distance. This is a time for students to meet their teacher(s), drop off supplies, take pictures (some choose to wear a uniform shirt), and get comfortable with the route from carline to the playground/ classroom. If you ordered a school supply pack on-line, it will be delivered to your child’s homeroom class.
First Day of School (Gr. K4-12): Wednesday, August 12
Wednesday, August 12, is the first day of school for all students. Parents, please pull through carline to drop off or pick up your child. You will be given specific information about our new Elementary School Dismissal Management app that will be used at dismissal and when your child attends After School Supervision. It would be helpful if everyone who picks up a child knows how to scan a QR code. Everyone will need a new carline cling since we will continue to use them with the new system. We appreciate your patience as we all transition back to carline
and become familiar with this new dismissal procedure. It is very important for you to read and abide by the dismissal guidelines that will be sent to you soon.
If you only have a K4 or K5 student and your schedule is flexible on August 12-14, please bring your K4 or K5 student between 8:45-9:00 AM in order to help carline congestion as we implement temperature checks.
