Our school counselors have been sharing ideas and strategies through their PLC and also representing our district at the Magnolia School Counselor Association Conference.
We’re proud of the work they’re doing and the difference it makes in the lives of our students every day.
Here is a list of activities and the parade route for our community and students. Hope to see you there.
Our LUES QUEST students have been learning about wildlife through exciting guest presentations.
Deb Waz Davis from the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science presented on animal adaptations and gave QUEST students a closer look at bats—with the highlight being an encounter with a baby alligator!
Audrey Rhodes, a former Lafayette student, along with a colleague, spoke to our QUEST students about careers in Wildlife Conservation and serving as a Game Warden. We are especially proud to welcome Audrey back to campus to share her journey!
Dan Kerber, Park Ranger from the Natchez Trace Parkway, taught students about wildlife adaptations.
We are grateful to these guests for sharing their time and expertise with our students.
If you are interested in visiting a QUEST class to discuss your career, please contact Mrs. McKinion at diana.mckinion@gocommodores.org.

Hands-on Math Fun in 2nd Grade!
Ms. Sicks’ and Mrs. Williams’ 2nd graders put their math skills into action by using Play-Doh to build rectangular array models. After creating their arrays, students wrote equations with repeated addition. This multi-sensory activity made learning both fun and meaningful, helping to deepen their understanding of addition.
LUES Anchor Award
At Lafayette Upper Elementary, our faculty celebrate one another by passing the Anchor to an inspiring colleague.
Last week, Mrs. Newman passed the Anchor to Mrs. McKinion!
Mrs. Newman shared that Mrs. McKinion is always smiling and always willing to help everyone.
We are grateful for faculty who go above and beyond to support their students and coworkers each day!
