back to School 2020-21
MSG FROM SUPERINTENDENT KEENEY - Hello. Welcome back to school. This is not the start we had expected but hope to return to in-person instruction ASAP. Remote learning details are located below. We will have textbook and Chromebook pick up beginning next Thursday, August 20th for students whose last name begins with A-L from 9:00-6:00pm at gym in the building your student attends. We will have pick up for students with the last name beginning M-Z on Friday, August 21st from 9:00-6:00pm also at same gym locations. Please use social distancing and wear a face mask. Full remote learning will begin on Monday, August 24th. If you have any additional questions please contact your child’s Principal. We appreciate your support as we begin another great school year at Lebanon CUSD#9.
11/19/2020 UPDATE -Due to the recent state wide and local area Covid events, we will be holding at our current student phase-in-plan. We will be adding a few more at-risk/failing students on Monday. We feel that it is not feasible to add the full amount of students scheduled on November 23 as planned. We will also not bring back all students scheduled to return on December 7th. We will maintain the current A/B 50% model, with the possibility of reducing student numbers and/or going full remote if needed. We will be monitoring our local Covid numbers and evaluate if we need to change plans at any time. Please remain flexible as we try to balance student needs and local Covid events. More information will be available online soon or feel free to contact your building principal. We hope to return to our original plans very soon.
11/09/2020 - UPDATE - Hello. We will be having meal pick up tomorrow, Tuesday 10th in observance of Veterans Day on Wednesday. We will have one pick up for all students at Lebanon High School from 8:00-Noon and a pick up at Summerfield from 4:30-5:00pm at Fireman’s Hall tomorrow. The Summerfield time change is due to bus availability. All students are eligible for FREE meals. Free, Reduced and Regular pay students are all now eligible for FREE weekly meals. We hope you will come out tomorrow and take advantage of the FREE meal pick up. Thank you!
11/08/2020 UPDATE Hello. This is just a reminder of our next stages of student return to school. More details have been posted on our district web pages. We are planning on keeping our daily time schedule the same, but adding additional student attendance days. The next phase will begin tomorrow, Nov. 9th, with the return of Special Needs Students grades PreK-12, at risk students 6th-12th grade, Title and Tier 3 students. On Nov. 23rd we will bring Tier 2, RAP/MAP and failing students. On Dec. 7th all students will return for 4 days of instruction. Students will attend Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday with Remote Learning on Wednesday still. As you know these plans may change, but we wanted to be transparent in what our current plans are at this time. We will continue to work hard to keep all staff and students safe.

09/16/2020 LCUSD #9 will be using the in-person or remote selections you chose before the August 7 county lock down as your student's selection for instruction. With the adjustment of A/B days and 50% capacity Blended Learning Plan, we know families may want to change. If you are happy with your selection prior to the lock down, nothing further is needed. If you would like to change your selection, please contact your building principal prior to this Friday, September 18, 2020. After September 18th, students will not be able to move from remote to in-person until second quarter. Thank you.
