Lumpkin County Schools

Great things happen when local businesses and industry meet with educators to make important decisions for our students and their futures! #𝙁𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙 #𝙏𝙍1𝘽𝙀 #𝘽𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙏𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧

In an effort to help our families calculate the correct quarantine and isolation periods for their students, we have added COVID-19 calculators to our website. https://www.lumpkinschools.com/page/covidcalculators

COVID-19 By-the-Numbers for Thursday, April 21, 2021 #𝙁𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙 #𝙏𝙍1𝘽𝙀 #𝘽𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙏𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧

In a school year with cancelled competitions, field trips, and student experiences, many of our organizations, sports, and clubs are learning how to adapt. Lumpkin FBLA led by Mrs. Amy Lincoln is no different. Not only are they adapting, but they are excelling! Congratulations!

It's been a minute, but we are back with face-to-face instruction today in Lumpkin County. Our numbers today are looking really good. Let's be vigilant and keep them down! #𝙁𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙 #𝘽𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙏𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧

It's the first day of face-to-face instruction for our spring semester, and we want to remind you that breakfast and lunch remain FREE for all students for the whole school year! #𝙁𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙 #𝘽𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙏𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 #𝙏𝙍1𝘽𝙀

We are ready to welcome our student back into our schools tomorrow for face-to-face instruction! We want this to be a success, so we must all continue practicing hand-washing, distancing, and wearing masks properly. #𝙁𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙 #𝘽𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙏𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧

It's Thursday and that means it's time for another Parent Involvement Small Group meeting with Mrs. B @ our Student Outreach Center! She hopes to see you there today and every Thursday from 1:00-2:00 PM. #FocusedForward

The number of overall COVID cases in our county is trending downward slightly and the number of cases directly impacting our capacity to have school is down significantly. Therefore, we will welcome students back into our school buildings next Tuesday, January 19, 2021.

Congratulations to our Partners in Education: John Monroe, Kathy Fontaine, and Roger Palmour (not pictured), Mock Trial Lawyer Coaches! Our January 2021 Ideal Indians were also recognized at tonight’s BOE meeting. Congrats to Julie Self, Jammie Caine, Wes Adams and Alan Hogan!

Thank you to H&R Block for donating school supplies to our Student Outreach Center! #𝙁𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙨𝙚𝙙𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙙 #𝙋𝙧𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙏𝙍1𝘽𝙀 #𝘽𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙏𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧

With expected inclement weather, Lumpkin County Schools will be delayed for two hours tomorrow (Friday, January 8, 2021). Please expect communication in the morning from your child's respective schools and teachers on schedules. #𝑭𝒐𝒄𝒖𝒔𝒆𝒅𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅 #𝑻𝑹1𝑩𝑬

As we navigate virtual learning these next couple weeks, we created helpful stey-by-step videos for our students and parents on the different platforms your teachers may be using. Please visit this link for these videos: www.lumpkinschools.com/virtualvideos #FocusedForward

During our delayed opening, student meals are available for pick-up from LCSS School Nutrition. Please contact them for details by emailing julie.knightbrown@lumpkinschools.com!

As of today, sporting events will continue as scheduled. Please keep an eye and ear out for any cancellations. We will be requiring that all spectators wear masks at sporting events. If you forget to bring one with you, we will have some available at the ticket table.

Due to the surge in positive COVID cases in our community, we will delay the return of face-to-face instruction until Tuesday, January 19, 2021. ALL students will be served virtually beginning on Thursday, January 7, 2021. The next two days will be used for our teachers to prepare. We appreciate your continued support of Lumpkin County Schools. #FocusedForward

Tomorrow starts a new semester in Lumpkin County, and breakfast and lunch remains free for the remainder of the year. Fuel your mind! #𝑭𝒐𝒄𝒖𝒔𝒆𝒅𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅 #𝑩𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓𝑻𝒐𝒈𝒆𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓
