Good afternoon, LPES families, 

This afternoon we held our first annual Senior Walk celebrating high school seniors who attended Laurel Park. Students lined the hallways and cheered as seniors walked their former elementary school hallways. Seeing them in their graduation regalia relishing their achievement of completing their K-12 schooling, made us proud that Laurel Park is a piece of their story. Once a penguin, always a penguin!

Track 1 5th Grade Moving Up Ceremony Reminders

  • Siblings are welcome to attend the ceremony but must be checked out from the Front Office before attending the Moving Up Ceremony. The sibling being checked out to attend the ceremony will meet you at the front entrance with their backpack and items. You will not need to return to the front office for checkout.
    • Please communicate with the sibling's teacher to let them know they will be attending the moving up ceremony. This will help speed up the dismissal process.
  • Doors will open at 1:00 PM for families and the ceremony begins at 1:30 PM.
