Smart Tag Information
SMART Tag Replacement: Sales of replacement smart tags have been temporarily suspended. The District has made the decision to print replacement smart tags for all students. Any existing smart tag will continue to work, after the new ones are issued.
Please continue to be patient with us as we work hard to improve our routes and minimize comeback routes. We are doing our best to accommodate the more than 15,000 students who require transportation this school year.

**Notify Leaman as soon as you are aware of possible exposure and/or if your student has tested positive.
**We will respond with the next steps to keep your student as connected to their learning, during this temporary quarantine period.

COVID Notification Emails:
DLJH will continue to follow LCISD COVID Protocols by pushing out the email notifications that you are currently receiving when a positive and/or close contact case is reported by a parent. Please understand that we cannot reveal a student's identity, nor specific class, due to the confidentiality. We are not contract tracing this year, so there is no mandatory quarantining on the school side. Many of these cases that we are reporting, are from parents doing their due diligence of reporting when tehri student was exposed or tested positive outside of the school. Many of these students did not even report back to campus. We appreciate these parents helping us stay safe as possible at school.
