This past Tuesday, LGMS 8th Graders attended their end-of-the-year picnic at Big Foot State Park. 8th Graders enjoyed many outdoor activities including laser tag and fishing and a delicious lunch provided by Magpies in Lake Geneva! They were very generous and donated a nice lunch with added items provided by our families. Thank you to our PTO and the many volunteers who helped to make this a memorable experience for our 8th graders! | |

**ATTENDANCE INFORMATION** | |
Important: Student Attendance and
New Attendance Procedures
| |
School attendance is very important, and we encourage families to make sure their children are in school as much as possible. However, children who are sick need to stay home for their well-being and to prevent others from becoming sick.

|
Students need to be to school by 7:20am and are to be in their homerooms by the time the bell rings at 7:30am.

Student Attendance and Attendance Procedures
One of the biggest ways parents/guardians can help their child succeed this school year is to make sure their child gets to school, on time, each and every day. The evidence is clear: children with good attendance are more likely to be successful in school. High attendance rates are linked to high student achievement. Every day counts, and missing school even 10% of the time has a significant negative impact on reading and math achievement as children progress through school. We want to ask for parent’s/guardian’s commitment to making sure their child attends school every day possible this year.
When a child does have to be absent from school, we ask that you communicate with us about the absence BEFORE 9:00AM. When your child will be absent, you have three communication options:
Call Mrs. Kramp in the main office at 262-348-3040 to speak with her and/or leave a message.
| | REPORT ABSENCES ON POWERSCHOOL OR A PHONE CALL TO THE SCHOOL BY 9:00AM. THANK YOU! | |
