Our schools were invited to participate in the Governor’s Early Literacy Foundation’s K-3 Home Library program this summer. Through this program, all rising 1st-3rd grade (current Kindergarten- 2nd grade) students in our school district are being given the opportunity to receive six high-quality books and activity pages, delivered to their homes this summer at no cost to families. For more information, see the attached flyer. By completing the process below, you are opting your child OUT of participating in the K-3 Home Library program in Summer 2023. This means your child will NOT receive six high-quality books and activity pages, delivered to your home this summer. If you DO want your child to receive these materials, you do not need to do anything further. If you choose NOT to participate, email Crystal Hesson, hessonc@maconcountyschools.org, with your name, your child(ren)’s name(s), and your child(ren)’s school(s). Taking this step will ensure your child will NOT receive the books. In order to opt out, you must email by 4:00 pm on Monday, February 12, 2024. After that time, we will not be able to remove your child from the recipient list.

LES FAMILIES- If you were in our backed up line at LES, we are sorry for your wait. There was a fender bender and while the report was being written we had to run only one line. For those who were wondering and concerned, there was no danger here at the school.
