Your child will be working hard to prepare for this event. They have selected class work samples, analyzed their strengths and weaknesses as a learner, and set potential goals for the remainder of the school year. Please come to this conference prepared to listen, acknowledge your child’s effort and growth, review their planner, and to ask questions. You will also help complete the proposed goals and develop a plan to achieve these.

High School Planning Guide

We hope to see you at Lesher's Winter Night Out! To make sure you are eligible to attend, make sure within the next two weeks you:

1. Don't have more than 6 tardies
2. Don't have more than 3 detentions
3. Don't have any suspensions

The student challenge is showing up on time to every class and not having tardies.

The grade level with the least amount of tardies at the end of the month will earn an extra outdoor day!!

If you are NOT currently participating in something that pushes you physically at least 3 days a week, then you need to begin now in order to be ready for the season. See this link for details and sign up! http://tinyurl.com/Leshertrack2024

Parents & Guardians, when dropping off students in the mornings/afternoons, please avoid blocking the two handicap spaces in the front of the building. Thank you!

Hello Families of Lesher 8th Graders!

This is the first call for short videos of your child in their element!

At the end of the school year, a video collage presentation is compiled to celebrate all of the out-of-school / extracurricular activities that our 8th graders participate in. This video montage will be shown during the end of the year celebration just for our departing 8th graders in May.

Do you have a short action video snip (10 seconds or less) of your 8th grader? Maybe you have a moment from a sporting event, engaged in favorite hobby at home, playing with a pet, doing something adventurous -- or a fun moment from a vacation? Anything goes, as long as we can see your child in the video! Horseback riding, theater, magic tricks, biking, hiking, skiing, volleyball, dance, football, surfing, cross country, wrestling, water sports, ziplining, basketball, softball, baseball, track, soccer, trampoline jumping, baking, gymnastics, rubik’s cube speed, unicycling, musical instruments, chess, gaming, disc golf, and weightlifting are several of the moments that have been received and used in years past!

If your child has an event- be sure to grab a few seconds of video and send it along! Sound will not be included in the video, so keep that in mind. Ideally this video montage will have a 2-10 second ACTION video of EVERY 8th grade student! You can submit 2 snips if you can’t pick your favorite- I will try to get all of them in. This is a chance for students to shine in ways that aren’t seen during the school day.

Please email your short video snips to the 8th Grade Day Viking Variety Show Coordinator, Ms. Julie Thompson - juliat@psdschools.org – she will be collecting them throughout the year, up until May 1st.

We have a couple openings after school for tutoring. Applicants would need to commit to two days for at least 6 weeks. 2:45-3:30 on either Monday & Wednesday OR Tuesday & Thursday. Contact Amanda Sutton with questions or interest; asutton@psdschools.org

Deliver donations to Ms. Sutton; see flyer below.

This week, updates have been rolled out to all student laptops. To apply these updates, you'll be required to restart your laptop multiple times. To determine if a restart is necessary, click on the Windows button; if prompted, choose "Update and Restart" or "Update and Shut Down." Ensure your laptop is plugged in and charging before initiating the restart. The process will take approximately 20-30 minutes, with some restarts potentially lasting several hours. Keep the screen open throughout the update. Note that these updates will occur on the second Tuesday of each month. If you encounter any problems or have issues, feel free to reach out to Ed Tech Coordinator Becky Knips at rknips@psdschools.org. Thank you!
