With our recent winter weather, the Lafayette County School District will delay the release of the scheduled February 6th- Progress Reports by 1 week. Progress Reports will now go out on Friday, February 13th. Also, most of our elementary students recently took their second ATLAS Interim assessment. Parents were given an access code back in October to access their children's state testing data on the ATLAS portal. This would be a good time to login again to the ATLAS parent portal. Here is the website address: https://atlasportal.org/families.html
