“If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.” — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Today we reflect on these powerful words and what they mean for our students , staff, families and community. Progress isn’t always a sprint or a leap; sometimes, it’s a slow, steady crawl toward a new skill, a difficult concept, or a personal breakthrough.

Education is a lifelong journey of moving forward, constantly evolving to better ourselves and those around us. It isn’t about how fast you get there; it’s about resilience, determination and the refusal to stop growing.

Today, we honor Dr. King’s legacy by recommitting ourselves to progress—in our classrooms, in our communities, and in our pursuit of excellence for every student.

Every day matters when it comes to your child's success, and consistent attendance is key to academic growth. Even a few missed days here and there can add up to missed learning opportunities.

As the holidays and seasonal sickness approach, let's work together to keep our students healthy and in the classroom. We’re sharing some important reminders about excuses and tips for staying healthy so every student can reach their full potential, starting with regular attendance.

Every absence, whether excused or not, means missing out on critical instruction, social interactions and opportunities to learn, grow and thrive. We appreciate your partnership in helping to prioritize attendance, each and every day. Let’s make every day count!

A HUGE shout out goes to the LCO Bulldogs Esports team who donated items for a fundraiser to purchase an additional Nintendo Switch and Television for their team so more people can play at a time! This equipment will accompany the equipment provided by @Bayou STEM to kickstart the middle school esports program.

Great job, Bulldogs! 🎮🐾

🌟 November is Parent and Family Engagement Month and all month long our schools have been celebrating all the amazing parents, guardians, and family members who play such a vital role in our students’ lives. Math and literacy nights, family bingo, parent picnics and planting nights were just a few of the fun events happening on our campuses this month to strengthen the relationships between our families and schools.

Family support makes a powerful difference in a child’s growth and learning, and together, we can build a stronger foundation for their future. Thank you to all our families for your partnership, encouragement, and dedication. Let’s continue to work together to empower every student to reach their fullest potential! 💚
