LES Kindergarten Field Trip
Our Kindergartners had a fantastic day at Bull Bottom Farms in Duck Hill, MS. The students enjoyed a hands-on learning experience and created many memories!










Champions of the Classroom
This Friday, October 24, during halftime of the Lafayette vs. Columbus football game, we will recognize 193 students who earned the highest possible and perfect scores on the MAAP 2025 assessments, as well as those honored through the College Board’s National Recognition Programs.
Families of recognized students have been notified, and our faculty and staff are invited to join in the celebration. We are proud to honor these outstanding academic achievements with our entire community — true Champions of the Classroom!

Excitement is in the air at LUES!
The Scholastic Book Fair truck rolled in today. The fair officially opens this Sunday from 2–4 p.m. and continues next week, October 27–31.
We can’t wait to celebrate the joy of reading with our students and families!

50th DAY OF SCHOOL
Our Pre-K students marked the 50th day of school in style last Friday! They enjoyed Coke floats, games, and plenty of fun as they celebrated this milestone together.











As we recognize this important week, we join our partners at the Lafayette County Sheriff’s Department in reminding everyone to stay alert and follow school bus safety laws:
🔴 Red Lights Mean STOP – All traffic in both directions must stop when a bus has its stop arm extended and red lights flashing.
🟡 Yellow Lights Mean SLOW DOWN – The bus is preparing to stop, so please be cautious and ready.
Every stop matters. Failing to stop for a school bus isn’t just against the law—it endangers our students. Let’s work together to keep every child in Lafayette County safe on their way to and from school. 💛❤️


We're wishing our swim team the best of luck at the state meet tomorrow in Tupelo.







Marco Devera and his Ole Miss international students recently visited our 3rd and 4th grade QUEST classes to share insights about their cultures. Students enjoyed learning about global traditions, highlighted by an engaging West African dance demonstration accompanied by traditional harmonica music and songs.











Congratulations to the Lafayette Golf teams on finishing a successful regular season. The girls won the 5A-1 Regional crown, and the boys were the runner-up. The teams will compete in the MHSAA 5A State Championship on October 21-22 at Elm Lake in Columbus, MS.
