WOLF WEEKLY

June 11, 2023

Good evening Lake Ridge Middle School Parents/Guardians-  We’ve made it to the last week of the 22-23 school year!!!

MEDICATION PICKUP

All medications must be picked up from the school clinic by 11:30 am on June 15. Medications not picked up will be discarded. No medications are held in the school clinics over the summer.  For those that are interested in picking up meds early, please come on any school day between 8:30 am and 2:00 pm.  Please contact Mrs. Camacho with any questions.  Medications cannot be transported by students.  Parents must pick them up.

LOCKER CLEAN-OUTS

Students will have locker clean-outs on Tuesday, during Fun Day.  They will not have access to their lockers for Wednesday or Thursday.  Students should not bring a backpack or anything else that is large that they need to store on Wednesday or Thursday.

EAT HEALTHY THIS SUMMER

Did you know the PWCS Food and Nutrition Department provides breakfast and lunch at some schools during the summer months?  Summer meals are free of charge and available to all children 18 years old and younger.  The summer menu, as well as meal service locations, dates, and times will be posted on the PWCS Food and Nutrition Department’s website: www.pwcsnutrition.com.  Come join us for breakfast and lunch!

NO PLACE FOR HATE

For our last activity, we asked that everyone consider things around them that they felt were unfair or injustices that they felt needed attention. They were able to use their creative sides and addressed these concerns through writing and drawings.  We wanted to share a very touching poem that was written by Madeline Lessard and edited by Lucy Nguyen.

Reminder about the for participation in Fun Day Activities 

In order to participate, you need to be academically eligible.  This means that a student cannot have 2 or more F's in their classes.  In addition, a student cannot have any major referral resulting in an out of school suspension during the 4th Quarter.  They also cannot have 3 or more total referrals resulting in any after school detention or Saturday school during the 4th Quarter.  Lastly, students must be in good standing with the library by having no outstanding fines or overdue books.  All participation is at the discretion of the administrators.  Ineligible students and families were notified on Friday, June 9th through email.

MOVING OVER THE SUMMER?

If you are planning to move over the summer, we are asking that you fill out the attached form and return it to Mrs. Gouro no later than June 13th.  This allows her time to work on updating your data and getting student records sent to your new school.

ATHLETICS

Rising 6th and 7th Graders: As you begin preparation for summer vacation, here are a few reminders for next school year:

You will need an updated/completed Athletic Physical for next school year. The 2022/2023 school year's Athletic Physical is now invalid and will permanently be filed. The updated Athletic Physical form is available on our school website for you to print and bring to your doctor. Parents reminder that you are required to fill out pages 1, 2, and 4 on the Athletic Physical form. All Physicals must be completed past May 31st.

The doctor will complete page 3 on the Athletic Physical at the visit. If you are a member of Kaiser Permanente, the "Summary" file will need to be attached to the Athletic Physical as it replaces ONLY page 3. 

Concussion Training has closed for the summer and will officially reopen on July 17th. Any concussion training completed before that date will not be accepted. 

Future High School Athletes - Please be reminded that you will now be required to complete the VHSL Athletic Physical in order to participate in athletics. 

We will send an update in July with further information! Have an amazing summer! 

 

Monday will be an "A" Day.
