📢 Important Update: New Pickup System at Lamont 🚗
Starting Wednesday, January 8, we will implement a new after-school pickup system:
• Walkers: Students will continue to leave from the front of the school.
• Car Riders: Drop-off and pickup will now take place at the front of the school.
• Parents, please form a line along Harrison Street (right side).
• Students will be released 4 at a time to their vehicles, similar to the previous procedure at the back.
For everyone’s safety, we kindly ask parents to stay in line and remain patient during this transition.
❗️If your child’s dismissal routine changes, please call the school by 2:45 PM to ensure we can communicate the update.
Thank you for your cooperation as we work to make this a smooth and safe process for everyone!
Questions? Feel free to contact the school office.

**Stay Healthy During Flu Season! 🍎🛡️**
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Flu season is upon us, and we want to keep our students and community healthy! Here are some simple tips:
✅ **Wash hands frequently** with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
✅ **Cover coughs and sneezes** with a tissue or elbow, not hands.
✅ **Stay home if feeling sick** to prevent spreading illness.
✅ **Sanitize frequently touched surfaces** like doorknobs, keyboards, and phones.
✅ **Get a flu vaccine** for an added layer of protection.
Together, we can keep our school a safe and healthy place for everyone! 💙
