Happy New Year! We hope that each of you had a restful holiday. We were very happy to see all of the children back and even more excited to welcome 15 new students to Locust Grove!

Angel Tree
Thank you to all of our families for supporting our Angel Tree children this year. There were 45 children who had a more joyous holiday due to your generosity.

Morning Carpool

• The upper door, located on the Primary Hall, will no longer be accessible.
• All car riders will need to enter the building through the front door.
• There are cones located on the curve by the canopy so no cars can pass. All cars need to remain in line.  If you are trying to park you will need to wait until you pass the cones.
• The line will move along faster if every car unloaded immediately upon stopping rather than waiting until reaching the canopy.
• The tardy bell rings at 7:50. All car riders need to be in the building by that time or they will be counted tardy. If you are concerned about the traffic and being tardy there are options:
• Lions’ Pride offers a morning childcare program that begins at 6:30 a.m. Children can be dropped off at the back cafeteria door. There is a small fee if your child is not enrolled in the after school Lions’ Pride program.
• Children can be dropped off at 7:25 a.m. at the front door and report to their homeroom. No child can be dropped off prior to 7:25 a.m. due to supervision concerns.
