The booking system will open on December 1 and will close on December 3 at 5 pm.

If you have already connected with your child’s teacher and do not feel an additional meeting is needed, you may reach out directly to arrange an alternate time if preferred.

If you do not have access to a device to use the booking system, please contact the school office at 902 864 6785, and we will be happy to assist you.

We look forward to meeting with you.

 

Game Day Early Dismissal Procedure for All LT Sports Teams

To help keep game days running smoothly, LT will now use a standard early dismissal time for all sports teams on away-game days.

How it works:
All team members are dismissed at 2:45 pm on any away-game day
• Parents do not need to contact the school for early dismissal
• If a student will be travelling with another team parent, they must bring a handwritten note to the office in the morning
• Please confirm transportation plans with your child before school when schedules are known in advance
• We understand that playoff schedules or late announcements sometimes make same-day planning unavoidable, and that is completely fine
• These early dismissals are excused and recorded as School Activity (ACT)

This procedure applies to volleyball, soccer, basketball, cross country and all LT sports teams.

 

Help Support LT Families This Holiday Season 🎁

The holiday season can be a difficult time for some families in our community. Each year, Leslie Thomas Junior High provides support to school families who are facing financial challenges during the holidays.

If you would like to contribute, donations can be made through SchoolCash Online under “Holiday Family Support Donations.” Funds collected will be used to provide grocery cards, essentials, and small gifts to LT families in need.

Your kindness will help make the season a little brighter for those who could use some extra care this year.

💛Thank you for your generosity and community spirit.
