Dear Lander Families,

Despite the challenges that this pandemic has caused, we managed to pull off a really great school year and even ended the school year with what felt like a return to some normalcy for students and staff. I continue to be so grateful to our Lander staff for their flexibility and hard work, as well as our Lander students and families for all of their support. It truly takes a village to raise and educate a child, the Lander village is among the best!

This last week of school was filled with fun activities and celebrations! Our 5th grade clap out and graduation was a great way to end for our 5th graders!

To those families who are leaving us for new places and adventures, we wish you all the best! To families who are returning, we will continue to communicate any changes that may occur throughout the summer, please see the most current return to school plans below.

Have a wonderful, safe and healthy summer,

Felecia Evans

Principal

Our Yearbooks will be delivered in the Fall. By waiting to finalize our yearbooks this year, we were able to ensure all our new students were pictured and we had complete classroom photos! Yearbooks for 5th graders will be sent to the middle school to be distributed there in the Fall, all other yearbooks will be given to students when they arrive to us in the Fall.

Below are a few pieces of information pertinent to getting chromebooks repaired and troubleshot during the summer months.

June: no new technology request will be processed. You may still use the chromebook repair form under the students’ tab on the district’s website.

July-August : IT department will begin to process technology request and shipping label/boxes will be sent to the student’s home.

Please be sure to watch for more specific details regarding technology as communications will be coming directly from the IT Department. If you are in need of assistance or require additional technology support contact the IT help desk by emailing ichelp@mayfieldschools.org
