LCMS Bobcat Parents and Families,

This is the final Sunday evening update for the 2025-2026 school year!

Monday, May 18th will be a B Day. We will have an altered schedule this week with no WIN Block, which will slightly impact lunch shift times.

The end of the school year is here, and it is time to celebrate all of the successes of this school year! Our Bobcats have worked hard, and it has been wonderful to see them grow academically and socially. They have brought me great joy as they have graced the hallways of LCMS! As this school year comes to an end, I am grateful for your continuous support, parents and families. Thank you for your partnership in making this a wonderful school for students to learn and grow in. Our Bobcats have a lot to be proud of, and we will be celebrating that this week!

Bobcat Bash~
We will have a Bobcat Bash for 6th graders on Monday, 7th graders on Tuesday, and 8th graders on Wednesday! Students should bring a refillable water bottle, apply sunscreen before school, wear sneakers and sport-like clothing, and only bring their Chromebooks to school on the day of their Bobcat Bash. It will be a fun time! Also, many thanks to the LCMS PTA for providing ice pops to our Bobcats on Monday for a fun, refreshing surprise!

Chromebooks~
All 8th grade students should have returned their Chromebook and charger at this time. If an 8th grade student has not returned their Chromebook and charger, they need to do so right away. Rising 9th graders will be issued a new device at LCHS, although students will not receive a new device until the current device and charger have been turned in or the replacement cost has been paid. All outstanding bills for damage incurred during the school year must also be paid for students to receive a new Chromebook at LCHS. If you have been issued a bill for a lost or damaged device or charger, please submit payment promptly.

6th and 7th grade Bobcats will keep their Chromebooks over the summer, while being reminded that it is a school-issued device that should only be used for school-appropriate purposes and should be kept in a safe place in good condition.

Library Books~
At this time, all library books should have been returned. If your child still has a library book checked out, please make sure it is returned right away or submit the replacement cost.

Medication in the Clinic~
All over-the-counter and prescription medications must be picked up from the nurse’s office by 3 p.m. on the last day of school, Thursday, May 21st. According to LCPS policy, medication cannot be transported on the bus. Medications that are not picked up by an adult will be discarded. NO medication can be carried over from one year to the next. Please contact Nurse Smith with any questions.

Summer Programming at the Library~
All branches of the Jefferson-Madison Regional Library have free activities, including workshops, crafts, games, and snacks, all summer long. Sign up for the Summer Reading Challenge and get a free tote bag just for registering! Teens in rising grades 6-12 can earn prizes throughout the summer for attending programs, being creative, completing a BINGO challenge, listening to or reading anything from magazines to stacks of books. For more information, visit jmrl.org/challenges

Thursday, May 21st is the last day of school of the 2025-2026 school year, and we will dismiss at 11:00 a.m. Lunch will not be served on Thursday.

We have a great week ahead as we finish the school year strong! Thank you, as always, for all of your support! If you have any questions, or if we can help in any way, please call our office at (540) 894-5457.

Tonight’s All Call:

Happy Mother’s Day, LCMS Bobcat Parents and Families,

Monday, May 11th will be a B Day. This is a variation of our normal alternating A Day/B Day pattern. Tuesday and Wednesday, May 12th and 13th will be A Days. Thursday, May 14th will be a B Day, and the pattern will continue as normal from there.

Science SOL: Tuesday, May 12th
On Tuesday, May 12th, 8th grade Bobcats will take the Science SOL test! We wish our students the best as they take this test! We will have an alternate bell schedule for testing, which will impact lunch shift times.

It is always important for students to bring their fully charged Chromebooks to school each day, and it will be especially important for 8th grade students to have them on Tuesday for their Science SOL test!

If a student has lost their Chromebook charger, the replacement cost is $35, and students may purchase a replacement from the Technology Help Desk in the library.

Clubs on Wednesday, May 13th: Avoid Early Pickups if Possible
We will have clubs at the end of the day on Wednesday, May 13th! This is such an exciting time for our Bobcats where each student is involved in their unique activity, so we ask that parents and families avoid picking up students for an early dismissal after 2:15 on Wednesday if possible, since students will be in the final club meeting of the school year.

8th Grade Chromebook Returns on Friday~
8th grade students will return their Chromebook devices and chargers to LCMS on Friday, May 15th. Rising 9th graders will be issued a new device at LCHS, although students will not receive a new device until the current device and charger have been turned in or the replacement cost has been paid.

Attendance Matters Through the Last Day of School!~
This is the time of year that we enjoy engaging and collaborative projects, fun activities, and end of year festivities! Remember that school attendance matters through the last day of school! As always, students should stay home when they are sick but should attend school when possible. Students who have 17 or more absences in a given year, whether they are excused or unexcused absences, are considered chronically absent and are subject to being retained. We have five After School Academy sessions remaining for students who have been chronically absent or are nearing 17 absences for the school year. Please contact the Attendance Team with any questions: Mr. Gerald Evans ([email protected]) or Mrs. Kim Smith ([email protected]). We hope to see all of our Bobcats at school each day between now and the last day of school, which will be Thursday, May 21st. As a reminder, students will be dismissed at 11 a.m.

It is going to be a great week at LCMS where our 8th grade Bobcats will show what they know on the Science SOL test! It is hard to believe that this will be our last full week of school of the 2025-2026 school year! If you have any questions, or if we can help in any way, please call our office at (540) 894-5457.

Once again, Happy Mother’s Day!

Reminder of the School Dress Code~
With the weather getting warmer, it is important to ensure we are dressed for success!

The administration and faculty believe that young adults should take pride in their appearance and dress. Dress, hair, and appearance that are of such a nature as to disrupt normal learning will not be allowed. If there are doubts about what should be worn or what is not appropriate, check with the administration. Dress with self-respect and decency in mind.

-Shorts, skirts, and dresses shall be of modest length. A guideline: when standing, clothing must cover skin and undergarments from the top of the armpits to below the buttocks with no undergarments showing.
-Shirts shall cover the abdomen at all times. Revealing or plunging necklines are unacceptable.
-Tank-style sundresses, tank-style shirts, and muscle shirts shall be worn if the garment has a shoulder strap that is at least two (2) inches wide and covers undergarments.
-Obscenities and undesirable slogans on T-shirts or other clothing, including those relating to alcohol, drugs, s*x, gangs, to***co, or that could reasonably cause a substantial disruption to the learning environment, shall not be worn.
-Hats, bandanas, or any other type of complete head covering, or gloves shall not be worn in the building, except for face coverings for health reasons. Bandanas and any bandana pattern material on clothing shall not be present in the school at any time.
-Sunglasses shall be removed when entering the building.
-Chains, spiked collars, and wristbands are not permitted on school property.
-Slippers or other footwear that may endanger the wearer or other students shall not be worn. Shoes must be worn at all times.
-Clothing, accessories, or items that represent or suggest costumes (including animal ears/tails, face paint, or other novelty items) shall not be worn.
There may be designated school-sponsored spirit days. Guidelines for those days will be communicated in advance and may include expectations related to safety, appropriateness, and school-appropriate themes.
-Students may not wear or carry blankets, capes, or flags as clothing or outerwear (e.g., worn over the shoulders or as a cape).

Looking Ahead:
On Tuesday, April 28th, we will celebrate Bus Driver Appreciation Day! Our dedicated bus drivers play a vital role in ensuring the safety and well-being of our students as they travel to and from school each day. Please take a moment to express your gratitude to our bus drivers for their hard work and commitment. A simple thank you or a note of appreciation can go a long way in recognizing their efforts!
