There will be a virtual meeting on Wednesday, September 29th from 5:00 - 6:00 PM to share information regarding the Advanced Academic Program at Lees Corner. During the first part of the meeting we will discuss the varying levels of AAP services. We will then review the AAP screening and identification process.
This meeting is open to all parents in grades K-6 but is especially helpful for those who are planning to refer their children for AAP level IV services. A Zoom registration link will be shared closer to the date of the meeting. This will require you to enter the email address that you have on file in the main office and your child’s name prior to you receiving a link to the Zoom session. You will also need to have the Zoom application downloaded on your device. This meeting will be recorded for those unable to attend.
Teachers take attendance at 8:50 a.m. so your child should be in class and ready for school by that time. If your child will be late or absent, please send a message to LeesCornerESAttendance@fcps.edu by 8:30 AM. Automated phone calls and emails are sent to anyone whose child’s absence is unverified after this time.
These are the attendance codes that are being used and their explanations:
Excused Absence/Excused Tardy
Excused Absence - student illness; death in family; court appearance; temporary student or family hardship
Excused Tardy -Student was not present at the start of the school day or class period when attendance was taken, but had a valid reason for being late such as doctor or dental appointments
Unexcused Absences/Unexcused Tardy
Unexcused Absence - student shopping with parent; student and family away for vacation student participating in other non-school activity during school hours.
Excused Tardy -Student was not present at the start of the school day for an unacceptable reason. Examples: overslept, running late, missed bus
General Music is back in full swing! We are having a great time singing and playing!
Students in grades 4-6 should bring back their recorders. If your child has lost their recorder or is a new student and needs to order a recorder, please purchase a new one on www.myschoolbucks.com.
We are excited for a great year ahead!
