First Day Update: Thank you for a FABULOUS first day. I was able to visit every classroom and was so impressed with what I saw on day one. We are so excited for the year ahead.

A few updates/reminders for day two:

ALL students must be dropped off in the car rider line, on a bus, or as a walker tomorrow. No students can be walked to the front door unless we have them marked as a walker in our system. If you try to park and walk them up, you will be asked to go back to your car and get in the car rider line.

CAR RIDER LINE (Please share this info with anyone who may pick up your child):

-Please do not cut in the line. Stay behind the car in front of you and follow the traffic pattern. This will cause significant delays and will not save you any time.

-If you need to buckle a child, please pull over in the parking lot to do so. This will keep traffic moving.

-Please drive slowly when maneuvering the parking lot. We have lots of children and staff in the area.

-Please have your RED car rider tag hanging in your car and visible to staff. This will keep the line moving. If you do not have a red tag, you will be required to show an ID. No exceptions.

-Our staff volunteer their time to stay and help with loading our car riders each day. Please be kind to them. Verbal harassment will not be tolerated.

BUS TIMES:

-Please arrive to your stop 10-15 minutes early and WAIT in both the morning and afternoon. Buses are often late during these first 2 weeks of school until everyone is more familiar with the route. Please remind your child to watch/listen for their bus stop.

-If you have multiple children who ride the bus, please remind them to look out for each other. If they notice a sibling is not on the bus or did not get off the bus, have them tell a staff member or the bus driver as soon as possible.

Overall, it was a very successful first day. Thanks again for your support.

Actualización del primer día: ¡Gracias por un primer día FABULOSO! Pude visitar todas las aulas y quedé muy impresionada con lo que vi. Estamos muy emocionados por el año que viene.

Algunas actualizaciones/recordatorios para el segundo día:

Mañana, todos los estudiantes deben ser dejados en la fila de recogida en auto, en autobús o caminando. Ningún estudiante podrá ser acompañado hasta la puerta principal a menos que esté registrado como caminante en nuestro sistema. Si intenta estacionar y acompañarlos caminando, se le pedirá que regrese a su auto y se ponga en la fila de recogida en auto.

FILA DE RECOGIDA EN AUTO (Por favor, comparta esta información con cualquier persona que pueda recoger a su hijo/a):

-Por favor, no se cuele en la fila. Manténgase detrás del auto que tiene delante y siga el flujo del tráfico. Esto causará retrasos importantes y no le ahorrará tiempo.

-Si necesita abrocharle el cinturón a un niño/a, por favor, oríllese en el estacionamiento para hacerlo. Esto ayudará a que el tráfico fluya.

-Por favor, conduzca despacio al maniobrar en el estacionamiento. Hay muchos niños y personal en la zona. -Por favor, tenga su etiqueta roja de pasajero en auto colgada en su vehículo y a la vista del personal. Esto ayudará a que la fila avance. Si no tiene una etiqueta roja, deberá mostrar una identificación. Sin excepciones.

-Nuestro personal se ofrece como voluntario para ayudar a los pasajeros que viajan en auto cada día. Por favor, sean amables con ellos. No se tolerará el acoso verbal.

HORARIOS DE AUTOBÚS:

-Por favor, llegue a su parada de 10 a 15 minutos antes y ESPERE tanto por la mañana como por la tarde. Los autobuses suelen retrasarse durante estas dos primeras semanas de clases hasta que todos se familiaricen con la ruta. Por favor, recuérdele a su hijo que esté atento a su parada.

-Si tiene varios hijos que viajan en autobús, por favor, recuérdeles que se cuiden entre sí. Si notan que un hermano no está en el autobús o no se ha bajado, pídales que avisen a un miembro del personal o al conductor.

En general, fue un primer día muy exitoso. Gracias nuevamente por su apoyo.

We are excited for the first day of school TOMORROW!
Some reminders/requests:
Doors open at 9:10. Arrival and dismissal will likely take longer the first several days of school as we tag students and students get used to our routines. Please have your phone available to receive calls in case we need to get in touch to clarify transportation.

CAR RIDER LINE:
Please follow the car in front of you and travel at a slow speed across our campus. We will work to get the car rider line moving as quickly as we can, but need your help! In the morning, please have your child ready to exit the car BEFORE you pull up. In the afternoon, please have your RED car rider tag displayed for our staff to view. PLEASE BE PATIENT- the line will be long and slower than usual. Our staff members are volunteering their time after school to help ensure your child remains safe. Please be kind.

BACKPACK TAGS:
Please keep the tags on your child's backpack all year. We check these daily.

KINDERGARTEN:
Only kindergarten families may walk their child up to the classroom door on the first day, 8/6/26 ONLY. Any students starting after 8/6 will need to be dropped off in the car rider line or ride the bus to school. No exceptions.

LUNCH:
No lunch visitors will be permitted until 8/17. This is strictly for the safety and operations of our school.

BUS APP:
Please download the My Ride K-12 App. Search for Jefferson County Public Schools Louisville KY. You can find your child's student number in the transportation portal or in Infinite Campus.

TRANSPORTATION CHANGES:
Please have your child go home their normal way on the first day of school. This helps them to establish routines. If you must make a change, please send a note in writing or email [email protected] before 3:45 p.m. Changes may only be made in writing by the parent/guardian. Telling your child of the changes will not suffice.

SEND ALL THE POSITIVE VIBES!!
Here's to the best year yet at Laukhuf Elementary. We can't wait to get started!

Enjoy a quick video of our staff prepping for tomorrow!
