Caps for Kids Day at Lutz Prep and Lutz Pre-Prep

We love our learning community and appreciate the care we show when we support each other.  One of our incredible 7th graders is currently battling leukemia.  She is on the waitlist for Caps for Kids to receive her own autographed cap from the celebrity of her choice.  For more information about that program please see the attachment.

We want to demonstrate our support for her, her family, and other children battling cancer.  We are hosting a Caps for Kids day at Lutz Prep on Thursday, April 29, 2021

We would love to see the whole school community participate for an individual $1.00 donation per student.  You may donate virtually at the website Caps for Kids created (see link below) or you may have your child bring in a donation in an envelope to give to their classroom teacher.  Our goal is to have our on campus and eLearning students all contribute to display our love and kindness to this wonderful 7th grader who calls Lutz Prep her home.  Thank you for your support and generosity. 

Date to wear school appropriate cap:  Thursday, April 29th

 Ways to donate:

  1. CLICK HERE for LP virtual collections for Caps for Kids via their website
    OR
  2. Bring money in an envelope to give to your child’s teacher

See read this for full details regarding Caps for Kids.

As we know, we are in a school year like no other. The term “tentative” has never better described the upcoming testing months of April and May. Please be aware that while the state and district provides us with testing “windows” and proposed dates, they can change based on various factors.  State and district modifications, unforeseen technology issues, and internal scheduling at Lutz Prep can all play a factor in altering testing dates and times.  While we make every attempt to communicate with families, teachers, and our students in order to be best prepared, we appreciate your flexibility, understanding, and patience during this time. In addition, please note that during testing windows attendance and punctuality are important; please limit scheduling appointments and early sign-outs.

**TENTATIVE** Testing Plan
**Reminder: These timelines are tentative and CAN CHANGE at any time**
