TRICK OR TREAT at the LUES Book Fair Family Event -- Sunday, Oct. 28th from 2:00-4:00 pm
Sweet Science Alert! Mrs. Butts and Mrs. Bolger’s 6th grade Science classes at LUES wrapped up their unit on cell theory by getting creative with animal cell cookies!
Students worked in groups to design their own animal cells using sugar cookies and various toppings. They had to think critically about which toppings best represented the organelles they’d been learning about. From frosting to candy, the creativity was off the charts!
What a fun and tasty way to solidify their understanding of cell structures!
Attention LCSD Students and Families: The University of Mississippi School of Education and Teachers of Tomorrow (TOT) are hosting their annual Fall Festival for PK-6 students on October 18th from 5-8 pm at Guyton Hall on the University of Mississippi Oxford campus. This will be a great opportunity for our students and their families to come together and enjoy some fun fall-themed activities.
Our dedicated school counselors recently attended the Magnolia State School Counselor Association conference right before fall break!
They returned with fresh insights, strategies, and tools to better support our students, families, and schools. We’re committed to fostering a positive environment for everyone, and this conference has equipped our counselors with even more knowledge to help guide our students on their paths to success.
Let’s give a huge shoutout to our amazing counselors for their continuous dedication and passion!

TWO DAYS A MONTH
That's all it takes to be chronically absent.
Did you know children can fall behind academically if they miss 10% of school days? Being in school supports students' social, emotional, and physical well-being, and provides students with opportunities to learn, achieve, and reach for their dreams.
