This is Mr. Phillips, principal of Lutz K-8 School.
We hope our leopard families enjoyed the long weekend.
In addition, this is a reminder that spring break is next week and there is no school for students March 11th through March 15th. Students and staff return to school on Monday March 18th. We hope our students and families enjoy the upcoming break.
Tomorrow our middle school girls’ soccer team begins their playoff journey as they compete against Walker Middle School at Gaither High School at 6:00 P.M. We wish the best of luck to our middle school girls soccer team and come on out and support our Lutz leopards!
This Wednesday is our spring chorus and ensemble performances. The event starts at 5:30 P.M. on the covered court.
This Friday is OLDEN Day for students. We are looking forward to a fun filled day. Students are invited to wear western gear or their den shirts for our February den pep rally that will also take place this Friday.
Every Friday is college day. Students and staff are invited to wear college gear to school!
We want to remind parents that drop off begins at 7:10 A.M. As you drop off students in the morning, please be sure to pull all the way up to help expedite our traffic process. Drop-off in the morning takes place at elementary pick-up point for all students. Once our buses have cleared, we open the front drop-off area for vehicles. Vehicles entering the school from the southbound left turn lane should refrain from blocking northbound traffic on U.S. 41. If you are parking in the front parking lot to drop off students, please be sure to escort them to the front of the school. Students should not walk from the parking lot without an adult as this is a safety issue. Thank you for your support with arrival and dismissal.
Please be reminded dismissal is at 2:10 P.M. and 1:10 P.M. on Mondays. It would be best for middle school parents to arrive after 2:15 P.M. as this would help to expedite our dismissal. If you are a middle school parent who arrives prior to 2:15 P.M., please follow the elementary pick-up point line and pull into the grass and staff will inform you when it is time to move to the middle school pick-up point location. Please refrain from parking in the front staff parking lot as this slows down the traffic flow during dismissal and helps to ensure safety for all stakeholders and ensures the car line continues to move smoothly. We are asking all parents to adhere to right turns only when exiting onto U.S. Highway 41. This will help to assist with traffic back-up into the school and will help to ensure a quicker dismissal process.
Middle school parents thank you for your support regarding our cell phone and uniform policy for students. Students should be following our uniform policy on campus and the use of cell phones is prohibited at all times unless students utilize a device with a teacher for learning purposes. Please be reminded that sweatpants are not part of our school uniform.
Don’t forget to join our PTSA for the 2023-2024 school year. Parents can go to www.lutzk8pta.com to sign-up. Students who are members earn a point for their den. On the website you can also access information on ordering spirit gear for this school year.
Once again this is Mr. Phillips, the principal at Lutz K-8 school and each day is a new day of learning for leopards!
PRINCIPAL / ADMINISTRATOR: Joshua Phillips
