Parents/Guardians and Staff - Please take the 2021 LASD Community Survey! The same as our past surveys in 2015, 2017, and 2019, your feedback and results lead the way for many of the improvement efforts in LASD. We want your feedback! Take the Survey at this link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2021LASDCommunitySurvey
Thank you in advance for staying engaged and guiding the LASD and greater community.

Dear Parents, Staff, and Students,
During the 2020-2021 school year LASD implemented the FID - Flexible Instructional Days to replace snow/emergency make up days in the calendar. The first year of the FID days was certainly challenging when you add COVID to the mix. During the end of the 2020-2021 school year, we surveyed the families to evaluate FID days. Overwhelmingly, 85% of the responses were very satisfied with FID days as implemented.
The one common request recommended a modified day and a common schedule between all buildings. We were able to take the feedback and adjust the FID day. All students will live stream from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm and follow the schedule provided by the school buildings. As a reminder to be in attendance for the day, you must participate in live stream classes and submit the required assignments. All staff will be available during their regular work hours of 8:00 am - 3:30 pm for Elementary and 7:15 am - 2:45 pm for secondary should you or your children need anything.
For more information on Flexible Instruction Days (FID), please go to our website at https://littlestownasdpa.sites.thrillshare.com/page/district-calendar
We hope this modification allows families some good old fashion snow day fun while still maintaining learning and keeping everyone safe.
On your mark...get set...the 5th graders sprinted into a new math quest as a fun-filled way of reviewing for their upcoming quiz! The students arrived to a race day theme set outdoors. As they zoomed from station to station to complete the tasks accurately, they crossed the finish line by proving their understanding of adding and subtracting decimals.
