LOCKDOWN ENDED: Agencies are continuing efforts to locate the state prison escapee but do not feel it directly impacts our schools and we have been advised to resume normal activities.
At the request of law enforcement, due to an escaped prisoner from the correctional facility off of Bragg St., Lee County High School, Lee Early College and Bragg Street Academy have gone on lockdown. We will let you know when law enforcement clears the area.
LEC in partnership with Bragg Street Academy (BSA) is excited to introduce "Robotics Club!" We are looking forward to this new opportunity for our students. We are holding a parent information session on Tuesday October 29th at 6PM at BSA . See the attached flyer for details!
Attention parents! This is a reminder that students are to be dropped off in the parking lot outside of Powell Hall on CCCC's campus (car line). Parents are NOT permitted to drop students off in the LEC parking lot prior to 8AM. This is to ensure there is plenty of room for buses and that students are kept safe from navigating traffic while at the LEC Pod. Also please note that students should not be dropped off prior to 7:30AM unless arrangements with admin have been made. Thank you.
Get into the Halloween Spirit as LEC transforms into a "spooktacular" haunted house! Join us for a frighteningly fabulous time!
