A Hillsborough County Public School
(Updated every Tuesday)
This is Mr. Phillips, principal of Lutz K-8 School.
We hope all our leopard families had a nice long weekend.
This is a reminder to all families that the last day of school for students is this Friday, May 30th. Students are released at 11:40 A.M. We hope all students and families have a great summer and we are looking forward to seeing everyone back on August 11th. We wish our 8th graders luck as they transition to high school.
This is a reminder that middle school semester exams continue through this Thursday.
Our 8th grade awards ceremony is tomorrow evening at 5:30 P.M. in the multi-purpose room.
Wednesday is our last den celebration of the school year and students are invited and encouraged to wear their den shirts to school.
This Friday is college day and students and staff are invited to wear college gear to school.
This Thursday is our 8th grade clap out at 12:30 P.M. followed by our 8th grade car parade at 12:45 P.M.
This Friday at 8:30 A.M. we invite back the Lutz K-8 high school graduating class of 2025 for a clap out to celebrate their completion of high school.
Please be reminded dismissal is at 2:15 P.M. It would be best for middle school parents to arrive after 2:22 P.M. as this would help to expedite our dismissal. If you are a middle school parent who arrives prior to 2:22 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. In addition, please refrain from utilizing driveways of individuals on 4th street and 5th street on the way to pick up point as this is causing safety concerns. 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.
Lutz K-8 school will remain a closed campus to ensure the safety and security of staff and students. We do have staff members present at drop-off locations to assist with ensuring your students arrive in their classrooms safely. If you are walking students up to the front of the school, please drop them off near the gates to keep our campus secure. We appreciate your attention and understanding to this matter.
We want to remind all parents that our cell phone and uniform policy for students has been updated this school year. 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.
Don’t forget to join our PTSA for the 2024-2025 school year. Parents can go to https://lutzk8pta.weebly.com/ to sign-up. On the website you can 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! We hope everyone has a great summer as we wrap up this last week of school.
