October 1st: Regular A Day Schedule

This week during our Wednesday Pace Time, the students will be attending a grade level class, where we will begin exploring lessons to support and enrich our students social emotional learning. LOSD adopted a curriculum for this learning called Character Strong, and the teachers have taken time to select lesson for the grade levels they will be working with that are relevant to the needs of that grade level. The students can find the class and teacher they will be working with this year in the StudentVue under period 10. Students will report to this period 10 teacher during Pace Time for the rest of the year. Please have your students swing by the office for some help if they need to find their period 10 information.

To call a student in ill, excuse an absence or release a student for an appointment please call 503-534-2319. After the greeting the first prompt directs you to press "1". Please leave a message.

The message line for attendance is checked every 15 minutes. You do not need to call back to make sure your message was received.

If you leave a message your student will receive a note excusing them to leave or the attendance department will excuse the absence.

When students arrive late to school, or return after an appointment they can check in through our school check in computer system which will auto-create a pass to class for them!

You can also email the attendance department @ rogerskk@loswego.k12.or.us

October 13th was originally scheduled to be our PSAT day at Lakeridge, however, that testing date has changed to Saturday, October 16th so on that Wednesday we will be having an 8 period day. Students will attend all 8 classes on October 13th so that our A/B calendar can stay in synch for the rest of the semester. Thursday, October 14th we will be back to a regular block schedule day.

11th grade students may now sign up to take the PSAT at school on Saturday, Oct. 16.

It's time to sign up for the PSAT/NMSQT for any junior student that is interested. The PSAT will be given on October 16, 2021, at 8:30 am at Lakeridge High School. There is no fee for our students to take the test. We will only be testing juniors this year. You must sign up in advance (deadline October 12) by filling out the Google form:

What is the PSAT test?

The PSAT/NMSQT - Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test is a standardized test administered by the College Board and cosponsored by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation in the United States. It is a good practice test for the SAT. The Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) measures what you're learning in school, determines if you're on track, and opens doors for opportunities to prepare and pay for college.

The PSAT/NMSQT has three tests: the Reading Test, the Writing and Language Test, and the Math Test. Test length is about 2 hours 45 minutes.
