It was another great day of food prep (Tuesday) and food delivery (Wednesday) in Lumpkin County! This week, Lumpkin County Schools prepared and delivered 7,130 meals to 296 homes! Thank you to our tireless #TR1BE!
Based on Governor Kemp’s guidance and ban on gatherings of ten or more people until April 6, 2020, Lumpkin County Schools will remain closed through spring break.
We hope to return on April 13, 2020. #TR1BE
Our School Nutrition Department, with the help of system and school administrators, spent many hours on Friday prepping food for delivery on Monday!
Our final board member highlight for School Board Association Week is Ms. Mera Turner.
Our fourth board member highlight is Mrs. Lynn Sylvester.
We survived Day One of Distance and Online Learning in Lumpkin County. Good job, students! We are all working together as a TR1BE to make this work for our kids. Keep reaching out and communicating with your teachers and administrators; we are here for you!
Our third board member highlight is Mr. Craig Poore.
#LumpkinMatters is still on for this Saturday, but it’s a drive-thru format! Check out the flyer for more info.
We appreciate all of you sharing our informational posts on the ESPLOST vote. As we are sure you are aware, the state has moved the items on the March 24th ballot to May 19th. That gives us all two more months to spread the word! #TR1BE
Today's School Board Week highlight is Vice Chairman, Mr. Jim McClure.
In accordance with Governor Kemp’s Executive Order, Lumpkin County Schools will remain closed through March 31, 2020. Closing beyond this date will be determined based on how things develop between now and then.
Our teachers and staff remain prepared to serve our students even from afar!
Clarification on assignments for this week: All students should have 4 days of assignments as we had 4 instructional days on our school calendar this week.
Since today was needed to prepare the online format, assignments may not have been posted early enough for students to complete the assignments today.
You may need to use Friday for the 4th day this week unless you got started today.
Today is a day of preparation for our faculty and staff in Lumpkin County Schools! Our teachers are planning together to make sure our students have engaging lessons during our school closures, and our custodians are busy deep-cleaning all of our schools! #TRIBE

LCES is over 50 years old! Many of you went to school in that building, and it's pretty amazing to see over 500 students go to school there every single day. But, do you want a new LCES for our students and our community? We do, too! #prideinthetribe
Your child's principal will be reaching out today with specific instructions on how Lumpkin County Schools will be handling distance and online learning. These days are not holidays; they are online/distance learning days.
We are all working together to navigate these unchartered territories. We appreciate your continued support of our school system. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if we can do something to better serve you and your child(ren) during this time. #TR1BE
