🔦This week we are spotlighting Ms. Boineau's Class!
This week we started our space unit! We learned all about where Earth's place is in the universe. We looked at a simulation to see how in the universe, there is the Milky Way Galaxy and then in the Galaxy lies the solar system and in the solar system we have lots of planets, including earth and the sun being at the center. Students got an opportunity to show their learning into a diagram showing where Earth is.
Ms. Johnnie from Laxer, Long and Savage has been here spending time with our kindergarten and 1st grade students teaching them all about dental health and what to expect when they visit the dentist.
Our students had so much fun learning in hands-on ways! They got to dress up in the same protective gear that hygienists and dentists wear while working on teeth, and they even had the chance to “act like” teeth while practicing how to be brushed and flossed properly.
They also learned about the right and wrong kinds of foods to eat to keep their teeth and mouths healthy and strong. 🥕🍎🍬 It was a wonderful (and fun!) way to build healthy habits that will last a lifetime.
Thank you, Ms. Johnnie and Laxer, Long and Savage, for helping our students smile a little brighter! 🪥
🔦This week we are spotlighting Ms. Lark's music class:
This week, we have been learning about the Winter Olympic sports through music. We watched professional ice skaters and talked about how their routines are choreographed to music, and then we learned how to use our very own paper plate ice skates to try for ourselves! Students listened for changes in the music and did different movements accordingly. Pictures are of Mrs. Cochran's kindergarten class!
Erin's patience and creativity make a lasting difference in the lives of our kinder babies! From teaching our kids the routines and structures they need to be successful, to leading her team with grace and professionalism, to creating magical learning experiences in a loving classroom environment, she goes above and beyond every single day.
Thank you to Erin for her dedication, kindness, and the joy she brings to her students and our entire school community. We are so lucky to have her on our team! 🌟
Tip of the Week from Mrs. Cundiff:
Build relationships with your students and let them know you love and care for them. Students learn best from teachers they trust and feel safe with. Young students thrive on repetition, consistency and clear expectations! Instead of telling students what to do, model it, practice it and repeat it.
🔦This week we are spotlighting Mrs. Stover's Class!
This week we have been learning about measurement and how to measure in inches, feet and yards. Students got an opportunity to put what they learned into action. The students traveled around the room and measured objects in inches and practiced their measurement skills.
Kelly Nicoletti is one of those rare people who somehow makes everything better just by being part of it. She’s an amazing teacher who truly cares, a great teammate you can always count on, and a committed employee who gives her best without ever making it feel like a chore. On top of all that, she’s simply a genuinely good person—kind, thoughtful, and always willing to lend a hand or share a laugh. Working with Kelly doesn’t just make the job easier, it makes it more enjoyable, and anyone lucky enough to learn from or work alongside her knows just how special she is. 💛
You can always count on Mr. Rodney to help in any situation—whether it’s cleaning up from a sick student, tackling a clogged toilet, or rescuing us from a spilled water bottle. But beyond all that, you can always count on him for the sweetest smile and a great laugh that brightens everyone’s day.
Thank you, Mr. Rodney, for all you do to keep our school running smoothly and feeling like home. We’re so lucky to have you—congratulations!
Mr. Rodney's Tip of the Week:
When things seem tough, just keep fighting!
Wednesday, February 4, 2026 ALL Lancaster County schools, buildings, and facilities will be on a two-hour delay.
Lancaster County School District has carefully assessed campus conditions, including main roads, auxiliary roads, parking areas, and walkways. While many surfaces have improved, some shaded areas still have ice—however temperatures are forecasted to remain above freezing tonight.
To allow additional time for our facilities teams to address any concerns and ensure campuses are as safe as possible for students, staff, and families, Lancaster County School District will operate on a two-hour delay.
We ask all families, staff, and students to continue exercising caution while traveling to school and allot enough time to travel safely. Keep in mind that a two hour delay is two hours after the school day normally starts. Please avoid areas that may present hazards and be prepared for possible redirection around icy spots upon arrival on campus. We also encourage students to wear appropriate footwear and clothing suited for current weather conditions. Reminder, breakfast is not served during a two-hour delay schedule. The 4K field trip will be rescheduled for a later date.
Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and commitment to student safety as we navigate these conditions together.
As a safety precaution, ALL Lancaster County schools, buildings, and facilities will be on a two-hour delay on Wednesday, February 4, 2026.

Due to anticipated hazardous conditions caused by snow and ice, ALL OUTDOOR after school athletics, activities, and school related programs will be canceled beginning at the end of the school day on Friday, January 30, 2026 which will allow our Facilities and Maintenance teams to prepare facilities.
ALL athletics, activities, and school related programs are canceled Saturday, January 31, 2026 and Sunday, February 1, 2026.
We are closely monitoring the weather event and our team has been communicating regularly with Duke Energy, South Carolina Department of Transportation, and SC Emergency Management Systems. We will provide an update on Sunday, February 1, 2026. REMINDER - Monday, February 2, 2026 is a HOLIDAY for students and a professional learning day for staff.

🔦This week we are spotlighting Mrs. Reynolds' class:
I am so proud of my little learners!! My students showed that they could identify, count, and write teen numbers on the last assessment so we have been expanding our place value knowledge to 100 through math around the room activities, math sensory bins, as well as individual centers. Some students are doing place value in the thousands on IXL. As a class we have been diving deep into our enrichments slides the kinder team made during our last math PLC. Not only has it amped up student engagement but also it’s made teaching so much fun to see kids learning and growing so much!
Tuesday, January 27, 2026 will be an eLearning day. ALL Lancaster County schools, buildings, and facilities will be closed. The Lancaster County School District has been in contact with Lancaster County Emergency Management and the SC Department of Transportation and inspected roads and multiple school campuses across the county and found widespread runoff and wet parking lots that are expected to refreeze overnight. Several campuses currently have ice and slush in areas with limited sunlight, especially around entrances, sidewalks, drop-off lines, bus loops, and other secondary areas that remain shaded. Standing water and runoff are expected to freeze as temperatures continue to drop tonight. Due to the hazardous conditions from ice we have determined closure is essential. As a safety precaution, ALL Lancaster County schools, buildings, and facilities will be closed on Tuesday, January 27, 2026.
Students and staff are expected to actively participate in the eLearning day. We recognize that power outages and interrupted services may prevent students and staff from communicating and completing assignments during eLearning. Upon return to normal schedule, students will have the number of eLearning days plus one additional day to complete any elearning assignments.
Students will receive eLearning information from their schools and teachers. Please visit https://bit.ly/LCSDeLearning if you have any questions.
Updates will be provided via the district website, email, text, phone and social media. Stay safe and stay warm.
