Louisa West Elementary School

Update on the 2025-2026 School Calendar We want to share an important calendar update regarding the remainder of our school year. Due to recent missed days, our current last day of school for students is now Friday, June 5. We are closely watching two school calendar requirement bills in the General Assembly, HB 635 and HB 631, which could offer some relief; however, neither has passed yet. If we miss any more school days and the state does not grant relief, we will use the first two days of Spring Break, Monday, March 30th and Tuesday, March 31st, as makeup days for students. If these new laws are passed, we will work with the state to make adjustments to our calendar to end the year a few days earlier. As a reminder, there will be no school for students on May 19 (Election Day and professional development day for staff) or May 25 (Memorial Day). We will keep our Lawrence County families and staff updated as soon as we have more information.

We thank Officer Powers and Officer Musick for their commitment and dedication to our students, teachers, and staff! They not only keep our schools safe, but build positive relationships with students by offering programs such as Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) for our elementary grades.
