Locker Orientation Information – Letter to Families

Dear Lisha Kill Middle School Families,

We hope you are doing well and are staying safe and healthy! As part of preparing for your child’s upcoming school year, we are planning several summer Locker Orientation days to support your child and ensure a successful transition to their next grade level in the fall. Please take a moment to review the summer Locker Orientation Schedule. 

Locker Orientation Schedule:

Grade 8 Locker Orientation at Lisha Kill Middle School – August 23, 10:30 A.M. – 1:30 P.M.

Eighth grade students may stop in any time during the hours of 10:30 – 1:30 to obtain their locker number and combination, and to practice using their locker.

Grade 7 Locker Orientation at Lisha Kill Middle School – August 24, 10:30 A.M. – 1:30 P.M.

Seventh grade students may stop in any time during the hours of 10:30 – 1:30 to obtain their locker number and combination, and to practice using their locker.

Grade 6 Locker Orientation at Lisha Kill Middle School – August 25

Because sixth grade students did not use a locker this school year, we anticipate that they will need additional practice time and support. To best provide this, we ask sixth grade students to follow the staggered schedule below. This will allow for lower numbers of students and families in the building at one time. There is also a specific time slot dedicated to students who attended the Grade 5 Virtual Academy this year, as these students may also like time to take a tour of the building and meet some of our current students in Grades 7 and 8. 

  • 10:30-11:30  Families with students last names A-G
  • 11:30-12:30  Families with students last names H-P
  • 12:30-1:30  Families with students last names Q-Z
  • 4:00-4:30  Families with students who attended the Virtual Academy 

Grade 5 Locker Orientation at Lisha Kill Middle School – August 25

In addition, we will be holding Grade 5 Locker Orientation on Wednesday, August 25. Save the date! Students and families will have the opportunity to walk through the fifth grade wing and familiarize themselves with the school prior to the first day of classes.  An opportunity for locker “combination practice” will be available, as well as an opportunity to bring in school supplies to drop off in lockers.  We will provide a staggered schedule to allow for lower numbers of students and families in the building at one time and will use the following time frames:

  • 4:30-5:00  Families with students last names A-G
  • 5:00-5:30  Families with students last names H-P
  • 5:30-6:00  Families with students last names Q-Z 

Please save the dates for these events, and contact the Lisha Kill Middle School main office at 518-456-2306 ext. 2000 if you have additional questions.

Thank you! We look forward to meeting you and seeing you soon!

Sincerely,
