WELCOME to the 2019-2020 SCHOOL YEAR! Back to School Night/Open House Monday, August 19th 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL Tuesday, August 20th Start Time: 8:00 AM (Breakfast served at 7:35 AM) (High School do not arrive before 7:45 AM; first bell 7:55 AM) (Elementary do not arrive before 7:35 AM) Dismissal: 3:00 PM Elementary Welcome Letter--Read Below for Arrival and Dismissal Updates due to Construction! Hello La Monte Families,
The 2019-2020 school year is almost underway and oh my goodness we are so excited. We truly miss the kids over the summer and can not wait to see them when school begins. As many of you know, there are lots of amazing changes going on the elementary side of the school, but the elementary office and entrance area and the preschool building are still under construction as school is getting ready to start. Due to construction still being completed we will not be able to use the circle drive in front of the elementary or the elementary entrance. DROP-OFF and DISMISSAL of ALL Elementary Students will be through the high school gym doors. In the morning, students will either wait in the high school gym or head down to the multi for breakfast. We will have teachers supervising the kids and also helping them get where they need to go. Car riders will be dismissed from the gym doors once the buses leave. Please enter using the south entrance and circle around exiting out of the north entrance. We know that this may cause dismissal to take a little longer but we want to keep all kids safe. If you need to pick-up your child early from school, you will need to enter through the high school entrance and check them out in the high school office. PLEASE DO NOT park in front of the Elementary or use the circle drive until Construction is completed. We appreciate all your help and understanding as construction is completed. Thanks for your help, Amber Knoernschild, Elementary Principal  2019-2020 State Required Immunizations All Incoming seniors will need to have a total of 2 Meningococcal Immunization done before the start of the school year. All incoming 8th Graders will need to have a DTaP Booster and a Meningococcal Immunization done before the start of the school year. Any junior high/high school student missing any Immunizations required by the state will need to have them done or scheduled to be done before beginning the school year. If scheduled, the appropriate form will need to be filled out by your doctor. Students who are not up to date on the state required immunizations will not be allowed to begin the school year. If you have any questions about your child’s immunizations record on file please contact me via email nurse@lamonte.k12.mo.us or by phone 660-347-5621 anytime. I am aware that many of the students have already had the proper immunizations but I do not have an updated record.
