To Our 5th graders: we are so very proud of everything you have accomplished during your elementary school days! It is time for you to move on but not without some last remarks, recognitions, and reflections. We love you!

5th Grade Farewell

Families,
It is not too late to register your child for 4K or 5K. In fact, we need you! Decisions concerning teacher staffing are made based on the number of children that are enrolled, so it is very important that we can account for all of the children who are zoned to attend LES. (The same is true if you are zoned for another KCSD school as well.) If you or someone you know has a child who will be of age to attend 4K or 5K in the Fall, please check out the flyer above and conduct online registration. Please share this information with anyone you know who needs to register. If you have any questions, please call us at school (803-438-8000) or dojo me. We need YOU!

Please note: *This is for brand new folks to the 4K program or are new to KCSD and need to register a 5k for next year. If you were in the 4K program this year, you will wait until July to register during normal registration.

To the Senior Class of 2020, we salute you!  From our hearts to yours...

Dear LES families,

I pray you are all well and remain safe during our time apart. Please email me if I may assist you with health concerns, questions about COVID-19, or other school health related issues. Below are some local, state and national websites you may find helpful during this unprecedented time in our country’s history.

Take care,

** Here is a wonderful video that was created by a school nurse to show her elementary school students what a nurse or health care worker may look like covered with PPE (personal protective equipment), when helping to take care of people during COVID-19.
