Monday Message
(Updated every Tuesday)
This is Mr. Phillips, principal of Lutz K-8 School.
This week is secretary’s week, and we want to send a huge thank you to our amazing office staff who work tirelessly to support Lutz K-8!
Progress alerts will go home with students this week. Additionally, conference night is this Thursday, April 24th.
Tonight, our middle school boys and girls flag football teams compete against Benito Middle School at Wharton High School at 6:00 P.M. Next Monday, April 28th, our flag football teams compete against Turner Bartels K-8 School at Turner Bartels K-8 School at 6:00 P.M. Come on out and support our Lutz Leopards.
Tomorrow for Earth Day our student government and students in grades 3 and up were welcome to stay after school for a beautification day. Students must have had a signed permission slip to stay after school and must be picked up by a parent or guardian.
This Wednesday is our National Junior Honor Society and National Elementary Honor Society induction ceremony. This will be held in the multi-purpose room at 6:00 P.M.
This Friday is our Pre-k through fifth grade spring dance from 6:00 P.M. to 8:00 P.M. Come join us for a night of fun. This is not a drop off event for students and students must be accompanied by an adult.
This Friday is college day and students and staff are invited to wear college gear to 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!
