Important Info to Note
Students in grades 3-12 will be asked to complete a survey that will
help our educators monitor their progress and design meaningful and responsive
social-emotional learning opportunities. See more info here.
Mrs. Bruce is looking for volunteers, with building experience, who would be willing to help build sets for this year's 3/4 musical, James and the Giant Peach. We are also looking for donations of materials (lumber, hardware, paint, etc) to help build the set. Please contact her if interested at cbruce@rnesu.org. Thank you!
School safety is a priority for us here at Lothrop and in the district. Our emergency evacuation plans are designed to evacuate the school in the most efficient and safe manner without panic. By practicing drills, we ensure that learners and staff members will know how to implement emergency action plans if emergency conditions arise warranting the complete evacuation of the school in a timely manner. Therefore, we will be conducting emergency evacuations throughout the year. We successfully completed a fire drill on Wednesday, and on Tuesday, September 19, we will be practicing another type of emergency drill. These drills can cause anxiety for some of our students and we want to ensure that we are discussing with them the purpose and importance of these drills. As always, please let me know if you have any questions.
Student cell phones MUST be left in backpacks and turned off. They also can be turned into the front office for safekeeping. If you need to reach your child please call the front office. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.
Lunches are free for everyone this year. We still ask families to fill out the Vermont Income Information form. Only one is needed. Without this information, we may not have access to critical resources. I have included the links below:
