Being a part of the Leopard family starts at LCDC. We loved welcoming the Majestics from Lovejoy High School to LCDC where they assisted with school arrival and read to our students, bringing smiles and school spirit to each class. Thank you, Majestics, for investing in our littlest Leopards!
All week our PreK 3 students enjoyed fiction and nonfiction books about forest animals, practiced counting and rhyming skills with songs and fingerplays and used blocks for building caves and dens. To end the week, students were given binoculars and went on a Bear Hunt in the garden area of our school. They loved looking for "clues" such as berries, footprints and even animals a bear might eat. Good news, no bears were spotted at LCDC! Our PreK 3 students had fun learning through intentional play and getting a chance to take the learning outdoors!

On Monday, February 9th the LISD Board of Trustees approved submitting a state waiver for missed school days on January 28 and 29, 2026 due to inclement weather.
After receiving Board approval, Lovejoy ISD applied for and has been granted a missed school state waiver; therefore, at this time, we will not have to attend school on the March 23 and April 6, 2026 bad weather make-up days.
We appreciate your patience while we completed the required processes to secure the waiver.
Wishing you a Happy Valentine’s and Presidents’ Day!

We are excited to return to school tomorrow! Classes will begin at their regularly scheduled times. Our maintenance, grounds, and custodial staff have been working diligently to inspect buildings, clear entry points and sidewalks, and prepare campuses for our students and teachers. We are incredibly grateful for their dedication and hard work.
In order to facilitate a safe return to school, we have a few weather reminders:
❄️ Students should be prepared for cold and possibly wet weather by dressing warmly and wearing a coat.
❄️ We ask parents and students to build extra time into your morning commute.
❄️ Parking lots may still be slick, please exercise extra caution in carlines.
❄️ Please be patient with parents and staff as carlines may run slower than normal.
❄️ If your child rides the bus, we encourage you to monitor bus stops.
❄️ Bus transportation travel times may be slower than usual. Our drivers will make every attempt to complete their routes in a timely manner, but traveling safely will be their top priority.
Governor Abbott declared a state of emergency prior to the winter storm impacting the state and Lovejoy ISD will begin the process of pursuing a waiver for the missed school days which includes approval by the Texas Education Agency. If the waiver is approved, students will not be required to make up the missed days. If the waiver is not approved, March 23 and April 6 will be used as bad weather make-up days and will be regular school days.
We appreciate your patience and partnership as our hard-working teachers, bus drivers, operations team members, and administrators work to provide a safe return to school tomorrow.
Stay safe and warm, Lovejoy
