Latta Elementary School is proud to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. Our students and staff have created a special Veterans' Day display to show our appreciation and respect for all who have served.
We invite our families and community members to stop by and view the display located outside the front of LES. Take a moment to reflect, celebrate our heroes, and snap a few photos to share your gratitude. Our fourth grade students will be performing for ALL veterans on Veterans' Day, Tuesday, November 11 at 9:30. We invite the entire community to come and watch our 4th graders honor our veterans in song!

We also celebrated 40 staff members with perfect attendance! Congrats to our 4 lucky gift card winners!

Dear Viking families, Thank you for your cooperation as we tried to make preparations in the event that a tropical disturbance caused issues for our area this week. Thankfully, Imelda turned out to sea and we have not been affected. Students do not need to complete any eLearning assignments. We have look forward to seeing all of our Vikings back at school tomorrow. LES and LMS families...Don't forget to have your child return Chromebooks and chargers. With Viking Pride, Stephanie Ard Superintendent
