Hooray for the 45th day of school! We appreciate everyone’s efforts in making attendance a priority for your student(s)! LES had 490 students with “awesome attendance” in September, and each of them earned a prize of their choice! We want to see that number continue to rise! School is not the same without your student!
We also celebrated 40 staff members with perfect attendance! Congrats to our 4 lucky gift card winners!
Friendly Attendance Reminders: a student is considered truant after 3 consecutive or 5 total unexcused absences, an excuse is required immediately upon a student’s return to school, and five parent note excuses are allowed per school year

Dear Viking families, Thank you for your cooperation as we tried to make preparations in the event that a tropical disturbance caused issues for our area this week. Thankfully, Imelda turned out to sea and we have not been affected. Students do not need to complete any eLearning assignments. We have look forward to seeing all of our Vikings back at school tomorrow. LES and LMS families...Don't forget to have your child return Chromebooks and chargers. With Viking Pride, Stephanie Ard Superintendent

Turtle lays eggs on the Viking Greenway today! The yellow-bellied slider is a medium-sized, semi-aquatic turtle native to the southeastern United States. They are known for their distinctive yellow markings and adaptability, thriving in various aquatic habitats. The yellow-bellied sliders have smooth, oval-shaped shells with yellow stripes and vertical bands. They have a prominent yellow patch behind each eye, which is most visible in females and juveniles. Nesting occurs in late spring or early summer near water. Nests usually contain 4 to 12 eggs. Typically 60-90 days to hatch, but the young MAY stay in the nest for a long time, even over winter. These guys may not because it is so early in the season.
