First grade through Eighth grade LCS School uniforms are changing. The new uniforms must be ordered at https://lcs2022august.itemorder.com/shop/home/. New this year also is a required gym uniform for Middle School students (sixth to eight grade). If you still have t-shirts with logos, you may use them for gym only. Mesh shorts and/or sweatpants in navy blue along with a LCS logoed T-shirt is the required gym uniform.

Health & Medication Information
Students may not come to school if they have a fever over 99.50. If they develop a fever or become sick at school they will be sent home. Children with a fever must remain home until the fever has been gone for at least 24 hours. That means that no child leaving school with a fever can return the next day. Also, fevers are always higher in the evening so no child who has a fever at bedtime can come to school the next day. LCS does not administer any medication, prescription or over the counter, to students.
