This is the last week of the school year and it's a short week. Thursday, June 13th is the last day of school and is an early release day with dismissal at 12:30pm. This is the last issue of the Falcon Family Weekly Newsletter for this school year. If your child is returning to Lakelands Park Middle School next school year, our Summer Newsletter will be coming your way in July.

Thursday, June 13th
- Students will not have access to their lockers.
- No backpacks or large bags permitted. Students are permitted to bring small purses and Chromebook bags. If a student must have a large bag, they will be able to leave it in the main office. Thank you for understanding and supporting a smooth end of the school year.

Our ABC countdown will come to an end this week. We need your help monitoring your students use of body paint. We've had some students so covered in paint, that they become very uncomfortable due to skin irritation and need to leave the classroom to visit the health room. Thank you for talking with your children to ensure they are being safe with body paint. Please remember that no body or face paint can be brought to and applied at school.
Final Report Cards
- June 24th: Report Cards will be available in Synergy
- June 25th: Report Cards will be mailed by MCPS
