Dear HS Parents,
 
This communication contains important beginning of the school year information for you and your student.
COVID-19 VACCINATION EVENT
Once again, on Thursday, August 19 LNC is opening up our school to offer the first or second dose of the Pfizer vaccine to the community. Anyone 12 or older is welcome to come to get a COVID-19 vaccination between 3:00 and 7:00PM. Visit takemyshot.nc.gov and search zip code 28078 to find the LNC vaccination event and schedule an appointment. Walk-ins are welcome. For more information, call 704-755-5656.
STUDENT PARKING PASSES
All eligible drivers who applied for a parking pass last spring must pay for their pass prior to picking it up. Passes will be distributed to seniors in the HS MPR on August 10 from 8:00 to 10:00am. All other students may pick up their passes in the MPR on Wednesday, August 11 from 1:00 to 3:00pm. Email Ms. Thomas at jthomas@lncharter.org if you have questions. 
CARPOOL
Student safety is our #1 priority during carpool drop off and pick up! 
Always give the carpool staff 100% of your attention and follow their directions at all times when in carpool. We will all need to be extra patient during carpool as we return to school. As always, carpool will take extra time until new drivers learn the procedures. Please be understanding and plan accordingly.

The HS carpool route is unchanged this year. Helpful information about setting up a carpool, carpool beginning and ending times and transportation options is available here. Please familiarize yourself with the HS carpool maps so you understand the flow:
Morning Carpool
Carpool at the high school begins at 7:15AM and ends at 7:40AM. All students must have their masks on prior to entering the building. 
 
If you also have a MS student to drop off, you may do so at the HS at 7:30AM or after. Do NOT arrive at the HS campus and attempt to drop your MS student off prior to 7:30AM as there is no supervision for our MS students before then. Once your MS student exits your vehicle they will follow the sidewalk to the campus crosswalk (see map) and be escorted across the main campus drive by a staff member.
 
Afternoon Carpool
Afternoon carpool at the high school begins at 2:50PM. There are no placards, car tags or carpool numbers needed.
 
We thank you in advance for all your patience and understanding in the first few weeks of the carpool process.
PTO LUNCH PROGRAM
At LNC, students bring their lunches to school each day. However, as an easy and tasty alternative, the PTO offers a program where students preorder lunches from external vendors and the lunches are distributed to students. In addition to eliminating the need to pack a lunch each day, the LNC lunch program is a fun and easy way to support our PTO, and in turn our teachers and students. The lunch program is the PTO's largest fundraiser. Whether you are ordering lunches for your child or volunteering to serve the prepackaged meals, you are supporting the PTO and your volunteer hours count toward your Serve10 goal. Opportunities to volunteer will be posted on Schoology.

The first lunch ordering period opens Wednesday, August 11 and closes at 11:59pm on Friday, August 20 for lunches distributed September 7 through September 24.

How to Order Lunches
This document explains how to set up an account for new families, how to move a student between schools (ES to MS or MS to HS) and how to place a lunch order.

Families NEW to LNC - you will need to set up an account with www.orgsonline.com.

Returning LNC families - use the same account login information as last year.

Returning families with students moving to a new school (ES to MS or MS to HS) - use the same family account login from last year and set up your student at the correct school by "switching schools" (request dual school account). You will also need to remove your student's profile from their former school (ES or MS) to avoid ordering at the wrong school. Here are the school codes:
  • High School: 243LNHSNCNC
  • Middle School: 244LNMSNCNC
  • Elementary School: 454LNESNCNC

Please place your order at www.orgsonline.com. Each family has only one "family account" for all students. It is important that lunch orders are placed online at the school your child attends because the lunch options and vendor delivery dates are different at each school. The name of the school is located at the top of the page once you log into the system, so please double check that you are in the correct school for each student prior to placing your order.

Here are a few additional tips:
  • Set up your account and place your order as early as possible, so that we can help you prior to the close of the order period.
  • You will receive a reminder email at the beginning and end of each ordering period if you answered "yes" to receive system emails. You can change or confirm your answer under "update my information."
  • All orders must be paid for prior to the close of the order period. Any unpaid orders remaining after the order period closes will not be processed.
  • The system will not accept late orders; please be sure to submit and pay for your order early.
  • If you forget your password or need help, you can select "forgot my password" or "get help" on the login page; or email the coordinator at:
  • HS: Kim Schild (hslunches@lncharter.org)
  • MS: Laura Eckert (mslunches@lncharter.org)
  • ES: Nikki Lowe (eslunches@lncharter.org)
