The district-wide Lee County Schools Festival of the Arts is BACK! Tomorrow at W.B. Wicker from 2:30-5:30 come join us in celebrating the arts with an Art Show, ensemble performances and get your hands on some great items in the silent auction! See you tomorrow afternoon at WBW!
Due to expected inclement weather this afternoon and evening, all after school activities have been cancelled for today.
Due to high winds, we have lost power at several schools. At this time, we do not plan to release students early given the current conditions. Power is estimated to be restored between 11-11:30am. We will continue to monitor conditions to ensure the safety of students and staff.
Our area experiences a partial solar eclipse today from 1:57-4:28 pm. The maximum partial eclipse in Sanford is at 3:14 pm. A few reminders:
It is NEVER safe to look directly at the Sun. Looking at the Sun, even briefly, can cause permanent damage to your retinas and even blindness.
The only glasses which are safe for using are those labeled as ISO 12312-2 certified. Regular sunglasses, swimming goggles, smartphones, cameras, and telescopes are NOT safe for looking directly at the Sun.
Outdoor activities within LCS will be limited until after 4:30 p.m. Have fun and stay safe!
We're thrilled to announce the new app for Lee County
