Hello LCIS Families,  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) testing will continue this week!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our students did a fabulous job persevering through the CMAS ELA tests this past week. Next week all students will take the CMAS Math assessments. Our 5th graders will also finish taking the science tests. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had great attendance on Tuesday and Wednesday for our tests. We were at or above 97% attendance on each of these days! This has only happened twice so far this year! Assistant Principal Erin Dillon and Culture Specialist Dylan Rodwick made a deal with the LCIS students that if they hit 97% attendance they would dress up as a pickle and a chicken. Check out the pictures below to enjoy some of the silliness!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Go Panthers!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
