Materials pick up will be Friday, October 9 between 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm. 

As we get closer to a date for handing out tech devices at LRES, it is important for families to know: In order for a student to receive a device this year:

  1. Returning student registration needs to be completed. 
  2. The Chromebook permission slip needs to be signed and returned. 
  3. If the student has a device that has not been returned they will not get another.

If you borrowed a device (Chromebook or Ipad) last spring and did not return the device, we are asking that you please return the device to school ASAP. We need to put new labels on the devices, check for any updates, add a case, and have you sign new forms for this school year. We will return the device to you as soon as this is completed. 
A Important Message From Our Nurses Office

Hello Families! It’s that time of year again! Time for you and your family to receive a yearly flu vaccine! This year more than ever, getting a flu vaccine is one of the best things that you can do to keep you, your family, and community healthy and protected from influenza. Getting your annual flu vaccine protects the most vulnerable members of our community from the flu, which can be an extremely serious illness, particularly in the very old and the very young. 

A flu vaccine can be obtained at your doctor’s office, local pharmacies, and even Urgent Care Centers such as Convenient MD and Clear Choice MD. Flu vaccines are fully covered with most insurance plans, and there are also places that provide flu vaccines free of charge to the uninsured. Check out the links below with additional information, and to help debunk some of the myths about flu vaccines. 

To help debunk some myths about flu vaccination:

General information on flu vaccines from the CDC:

Thank you for doing your part to keep our schools and communities safe.
