8th GRADE PARENTS

Our Eighth Grade Honors Assembly will take place on Wednesday, June 11 at 9:00 am in the Gymnasium of Lowrey School. Students will receive awards for outstanding achievement.  This is a very special time for our eighth graders. We encourage all parents to attend and celebrate the successes of their children. Seating will be available in the bleachers above the gymnasium. There will be an area in the bleachers for parents to take pictures during the program. Picture taking will be available on the main floor after the assembly is over. Students are expected to arrive in school at the regular starting time of 8:00 a.m. They should be dressed appropriately for the event: Dress pants and shirts for boys and dresses or pant suits for girls. Students will be seated in the gymnasium by 8:50 a.m. The ceremony will last for about 90 minutes. At the end, students, parents and teachers may exchange farewells. Again, we want to encourage parents to attend that special day in the life of their children.

SPRING DRESS CODE

As the weather gets warmer, all students are required to adhere to the spring/summer Dress Code at Lowrey School. Students should wear neat and clean clothing, which is practical and above all, seasonally    appropriate.  T-shirts and sweatshirts may not display any inappropriate words, pictures or slogans. Hats, including baseball caps, visors, and bandanas may not be worn inside classrooms or during assemblies. Clothing must not have tears or holes. All tops, blouses or shirts must cover the mid-riff area and shoulders.  Spaghetti straps, off the shoulder and tube tops are not      acceptable clothing for students. Beach sandals/flip-flops should not be worn to school for safety reasons. Tennis shoes are preferred for Elementary students, since they have lunch recess daily. All skirts should be of an appropriate length (knee length or longer). We recommend that students wear layered clothing that can be removed/added according to the temperature.

Lowrey Elementary Chess Team - District Champs


LMS Chess Team - District Champs

This year Lowrey Middle School again participated in the Dearborn Middle School Chess League. Lowrey had tournaments against Unis, Bryant, O.L. Smith, Woodworth and Salina. Lowrey had an exceptional chess season with a final record of 10-0. The chess team worked hard all season practicing after school at team practices and on their lunch hours. What makes this year’s championship even more special is that the group of students that went 10-0 this year is the same group that won the elementary chess championship for Lowrey in 2005 (they were also undefeated in that season). The Lowrey staff and students are very proud of this outstanding achievement. The chess team members are: Hussein Elkhozai, Hamzeh Khachiche, Hussein Saad, Danny Bazzi, Ali Joni, Ali Nasser, Mohamed Saleh, Kamal Faouzi, Hassan Al-Alehi, Dhia Mohammad.

SCHOOL SAFETY POLICIES

 

ENTRY/EXIT INTO THE BUILDING:

All parents are to use the main entry doors in the front of the school when picking up students. We have a large number of parents knocking on doors trying to get in. For safety reasons, students and staff have been instructed not to open doors for ANYONE.

VISITORS:

All visitors to Lowrey School (including parents) are required to check in at the main office and obtain a visitor’s pass in order to be in the building. Staff members have been instructed to direct all visitors not wearing a visitors pass to the main office to check in. Furthermore, all teachers have been instructed not to allow any visitors in the classrooms without a visitors pass.

PICKING UP OF STUDENTS FROM CLASSROOMS:

In the past, parents have entered the building and waited outside their child’s classroom to pick them up from school.  Lowrey Administration has asked that parents no longer do this. Parents will be permitted to wait for their child in the main lobby. Students will be brought down to the lobby by their teachers for dismissal.

  • not to walk by themselves
  • not to wait or travel alone
  • not to talk to any strangers at any time or at any place
