LUES 7 Mindsets for today: "Live to Give- Receive Gracefully"...
Students at this age need consistent modeling and prompting when learning to say “thank you” after kind gestures have been given to them. In this lesson about receiving gracefully, we will learn that we should not feel uncomfortable or underserving when new and exciting things come into our lives, and should be prepared to receive these gifts gracefully.

While transporting students home from school, one of our buses was rear ended by a car. None of the students nor the driver were seriously injured. The safety of our students is our top priority, including when they are riding the bus to and from school each day. All parents were contacted by the school system and notified of the accident.
Dear LUES Family,
I hope this notice finds you well. Just as we pay close attention to our attendance and discipline data, we also like to look at other data as well to keep LUES running successfully. I wanted to update you on nurse visits on campus yesterday. On 2/13/24, our school nurse, Cory Wickstrom, attended to 81 students in her office. Some students required daily medication, while others sought assistance for headaches, stomach aches, band-aids, chapstick, head lice checks, and clothing issues. Way to go Nurse Cory!
Out of the 81 students, 10 had to be sent home due to illness. To ensure the health and safety of all our students, I kindly request that you refrain from sending your child to school if they are unwell (fever, vomiting, diarrhea, head lice, etc.) . Our dedicated nurse must check each child's medication permissions, contact parents, and document everything on Infinite Campus. To do all of that due diligence for 81 students each day is a lot of work, but Nurse Cory handles it very well!
What other data would you like for me to share with you? Please feel free to email me at rhonda.stone@toombs.k12.ga.us with suggestions and ideas.
Warm regards,
Rhonda Stone
Principal, Lyons Upper Elementary
Local Parent Conference Opportunity - Feb. 23 & Feb. 24 - See image for more info.
Wishing everyone a Happy Valentine's Day filled with love and joy!
