The Lion Ledger

August 11, 2023, Volume 8, No. 1

Welcome Back Lions! We can not wait to start the 2023-2024 school year. We know this new year will be filled with learning and wonderful memories. Please see the 2023-2024 School Calendar for all important dates (Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break, etc.) This information is also on our school website.

On our first day of school, Monday, August 14th, parents may walk their students to the classroom.

After the first day of school, we kindly ask that parents drop their children off at the cafeteria gate or the main gate in front of the office. The cafeteria gate will open at 7:40am for breakfast and will be closed and locked at 8:10am. Our Support Staff will be there to help students make their way to the classroom.

We are looking forward to an amazing year of learning and growing!

Lemoore Elementary School follows the District’s minimum dress code for students. Please refer to the

We are excited to announce that we are continuing with ParentSquare our school-to-home communication platform. This unified communications platform is designed to keep parents and guardians informed and encourage greater engagement and connection with our school and the district. It provides a safe way for district administrators, school principals, teachers, staff, and parents to:

• Send and receive school and class information

• Share pictures and files

• See calendar items

• Sign up to volunteer

• Schedule parent-teacher conferences

• and much more . . . all in one centralized place!

All district, school, grade level and classroom information will be sent to your computer or phone via email and/or text. For even more convenience, download the ParentSquare app (available for free for iOS and Android devices).

Back to School Night will be on August 17th from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm. This will allow families to see classrooms, meet teachers, and ask questions.

A Parent Meeting will take place the same night from 5:00pm to 5:30pm in the LE cafeteria.
