This year, our 4th Grade will be completing an ELA Field Test. This is a non evaluative, 45 minute process and will not disrupt the typical day of learning. Please see the memo in the link below.

Dear Lockhart Families: We are excited for the Kindergarten playground construction to begin on Monday! Everything is right on schedule, with the demolition at multiple buildings now complete. While you may have questioned the inactivity this week, it was all in the plan. Construction should be complete by May 16 and then it will be ready to use! We know our Kindergarten is very excited and we are certain they will love the new playground. Our arrival procedures will remain the same, but there will certainly be more machinery and equipment in that area beginning next week.
