In May, we celebrate our graduates. We start with a glance at some of the numbers associated with the Class of 2026.
LES Authors
Mrs. Threlkeld’s first grade class recently became published authors! Their class book, Once Upon a First Grade Tale, brings fairy tales to life through their creativity and hard work. It is an incredible accomplishment for these young writers!
Sixth Grade QUEST students enjoyed a hands-on field trip to the Duff Center at the University of Mississippi, where they worked with physics professors and graduate students to explore subatomic particles. A great day of learning beyond the classroom!
Happy School Principals Day!

Happy School Lunch Hero Day!
We are grateful for the amazing team members who keep our students nourished and smiling every day.
