Dear Parents and Families,

I am reaching out to all of you to see if there are any adults who would be interested in being a Friday Program community chaperone at the high school level. We could really use the support and are looking for any parents who are able to free up five afternoons this winter to ski with our students.

The perks are...

• Skiing midday on a Friday!
• For every two times you volunteer you can get a voucher for a ski pass to be used at the mountain. Unfortunately this does not apply to people with an epic pass.
• It is really fun to ski and interact with youth members in our community!

If you are interested or have any questions please reach out to Patrick Kantlehner (Mr. K) and he can describe the scope of the work in more detail.

Weekly update from Tim Albertson.

Students are expected to ride the bus they are assigned to each day, with the exception of sporting events. If your child plans to ride a different bus, parent permission is required. An email or note to Amanda at the front desk will allow us to give your student a bus pass for that day. Amanda’s email is amanda.hatfield@lamoillesouth.org or (802) 253-7229.

All bus riders are expected to remain seated, quiet and display respectful behavior toward peers and the driver.

We are encouraging all middle and high school families to log into PowerSchool to stay updated on their student’s academic progress. PowerSchool is your go-to hub for:

• Schedules
• Daily attendance
• Term & cumulative grades
• Individual assignment scores & feedback

• Open the relevant app store on your device, search for "PowerSchool," and then download the free "PowerSchool App." Use the code LNMT to link to the LSSU database, and enter the login credentials you were provided with by the district. Navigate between different views from a menu on the bottom of the screen. If you have more than one child, switch between their information by clicking on another name in the top right corner.

To excuse an absence, please use the following shs.attendance@lamoillesouth.org. You can always call the attendance line as well if you like at (802) 253-7229 and choose option 1.
