Hello Caregivers,

I hope you all had a great weekend. We know it can be challenging to return from a break, especially to a full five-day week, and we appreciate everyone’s support in helping students transition back smoothly.

This week, our K–2 students will be participating in MAP testing. In addition, our middle school students have a hiking trip scheduled for January 15, 2026, weather permitting. High school students will be finishing midterms, and grades will close on Friday, January 16, 2026.

Please note that there will be no school on Monday, January 19, 2026, as LPS will be observing Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Looking ahead, high school MAP testing will take place on January 22 and 23. Middle school MAP testing is scheduled for January 27, January 29, and February 3. High school report cards will be available in PowerSchool on January 23. SES will also be hosting Provider Night on January 29.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support. We hope you have a great week ahead.

Best regards,

Erik Desmond
