MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Dear LCS Selma Families,
We hope you are staying safe and healthy. There is a lot happening next week at Larchmont! Please read below to learn more about Conference Week, Parent Stakeholder Surveys, Annual Giving Drive, and more! Thank you for your continued support this school year.
Annual Giving Drive!
Great news, Selma campus! We have 41% participation in our Annual Giving Drive as of today!
This is truly amazing, but we want to get as close to 100% participation as possible! There's still time. If you've already made your pledge, thank you so much for being a part of that 41%. If you haven't yet, please go to larchmontcharter.org/give to make your donation.
If you want to help us to continue to grow this amazing school, please pledge to help us reach our goal so we can keep all of the necessities, enrichments and opportunities our students deserve in a high quality and high performing public education.
Thank you for being part of this work. Participate. Anything helps. We appreciate being part of your team.
Parent Stakeholder Surveys
We ask for parent feedback twice per year through our stakeholder surveys. Thank you for taking a few moments to let us know how LCS Selma is doing!

Conferences with Enrichment Teachers
Parents, all eight enrichment teachers will be holding open house conference times every day from 1:30-2:00pm. You may drop in to any teacher's Zoom any day of the week.
