Good morning, LRSD families,
Out of an abundance of caution and after consultation with surrounding districts, LRSD’s Safety and Security team, First Student Transportation, and the National Weather Service, LRSD will close schools and offices on Thursday and Friday, January 9-10, 2025, due to anticipated inclement weather. Forecasters predict significant freezing/snow conditions moving into our area starting tomorrow. All athletic events are also canceled. In making weather-related decisions, LRSD prioritizes the safety of students and staff.
LRSD staff, please monitor your emails for additional instructions from our Human Resources Department.
As a reminder, LRSD will keep staff and families updated through our App, social media platforms, website, LRSD TV, and our traditional media partners. Stakeholders are encouraged to download the free LRSD App so they never miss a message from the district.
Thank you, and stay safe!
5th Grade had a blast at MidAmerica Museum today!
A very special day dedicating the Malin Opitz Outdoor Classroom at Jefferson Elementary. This new space will serve as a lasting tribute to Malin and a place where students can gather, learn and celebrate the spirit of our school community. Thank you to the many, many people who made it all possible. We are grateful for your support!

Dear Jefferson Families,
Your child should have a Square1 Art form in their backpack or homework folder.
Please take a moment to look at the work they have created. The form includes free stickers with your child's art printed on it. This is a great way to give personalized gifts this season and raise money for your Jefferson Art program.
All orders are due by Monday, December 16th
if you have any questions feel free to contact your Art teacher at elizabeth.morris@lrsd.org or classroom phone after 2PM 501-447-5049
