Leaving School During the Day
It is encouraged that you make appointments and schedule family business outside of school hours, but if you must pick up your child early for an appointment during the school day, please send a note to the classroom teacher or notify the office. When picking up students early, the parent or authorized adult will be asked to complete an early dismissal form and the office will notify the classroom teacher to send the student to the office for departure.

Lunch Program
In our first year of operation, it is not possible for us to provide breakfast or lunch for our students. Therefore, we ask you to send your child to school each day with a nutritious lunch that he or she can carry. Students will be walking to nearby parks under the close supervision of adults, weather permitting. Even though, we cannot provide your child a lunch, we ask all parents who feel their child might qualify for a free or reduced lunch to fill out the appropriate application in the instance that we may be able to begin providing free or reduced lunch and to provide the school with important data.

Visiting the School
Parents are encouraged to make regular visits to the school. Visiting the school might be a part of your family partnership plan. In order to monitor traffic and to ensure the safety of the school, it is important that you sign-in when you visit the school and wear a badge of identification. All school visitors, including parents, must sign in and wear a badge.

We ask that when you visit the school, you respect the instructional time of teachers and students. Please do not disturb lessons or students and teachers who are working. If you have a matter to attend to with a teacher, please find a mutually agreeable time to discuss the matter.

Textbooks/School Materials
LCCS students are responsible for the proper use and care of all school equipment and property, including books and other instructional materials. Students who destroy school property in any manner will be responsible for replacing the property. Any willful destruction of school property compromises the safety and security of the school community and violates the essence of the Guiding Principles. Parents must replace damaged or lost books or other school property.

Lost and Found
Found items belong to someone else and should not be taken by the person who found the item. Any items found at the school site should be taken to the lost and found in the main office. Check for lost items in the main office. The lost and found will be cleaned out every two weeks. Items not claimed will be donated or discarded. All items brought to school by students including jackets, backpacks, lunch sacks, etc. should be clearly labeled with the child’s name.

Non-School School Property
Personal property not related to the school’s programs are not to be brought to school. "Walkmans," CD Players, Game Boys or other electronic games, pagers, cell phones, etc. will be confiscated and returned to the child at the end of the school day if they are brought to school.
