Learning at Home: Monday, April 6th, marks the beginning of remote learning in the Lockport City School District during these unprecedented times. Lessons and activities for LCSD students K-12 are organized by grade level and content through April 17th. We encourage students to spend a part of each day doing the best they can to actively engage in the activities shared by teachers. If school continues to remain closed, new lessons and activities will be added each week until further notice.

The Board of Education meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, April 8th at 5PM. Due to COVID-19 concerns and CDC guidelines for social gatherings, the meeting will not be open to the public to attend in person, but will be accessible through livestream on Google Meet. https://stream.meet.google.com/stream/8172c0df-6a7a-4673-85cd-395b6fcb9f0d
