LICKING R-VIII SCHOOL DISTRICT - Home of the Wildcats

Dear Parents/Guardians, The 2020-2021 School Year our school district has been granted with free breakfast and lunches for all students regardless of income. As a reminder, a milk is provided with each breakfast and lunch and is included in the cost of the initial price. If your student requests an extra milk at lunch time or gets a milk at snack time ( kindergarten-2nd grade) it will be an additional $0.30 charge. This charge is not covered by the school and will be billed to each student's account. There are many students requesting these extras on a daily basis. Please discuss this with your students and let them know what you allow. You can pay these accounts in the elementary office or online on your Lumen account with a valid debit/credit card.

Today Mr. Colton Lewis taught kindergarten students what it’s like to be a mechanic, local business partner, and community volunteer. Mr. Lewis gave each kindergartener a Hot Wheels car!! Thank you Mr. Lewis!!

These monies are called Title I. Title I, Part A, requires that each Title I school hold an annual meeting for the parents and families whose children receive Title I services in order to: • Inform you of the school’s participation in Title I, Part A • Explain the requirements of Title I, Part A • Explain your rights and opportunities as parents and families to be involved in your child’s learning and achievement In lieu of the annual face-to-face meeting this article was developed, during the COVID-19 pandemic, to address all the above requirements without assembling multiple families together. Please follow the link above to view the complete presentation and supporting documents. If you have any lingering questions or concerns, please call 573-674-3211 or 573-674-2911.
