Lightning has been detected within 8 miles of campus. Per safety procedures, we cannot release walkers or bike riders at the regular dismissal time.

Students who have cell phones are being allowed to use them to contact parents for pickup in the parent pick-up line. If your student does not have a cell phone you can still come to the parent pick up line and your student will be called from the cafeteria.

If we receive the all-clear and are able to release students, we will post an update and release them at that time.

Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize student safety.

GO TIGERS!!!

Yesterday was our first day back at LAJ, and what a fantastic day it was! Even with traffic growing pains, we loved seeing our friendly returning Tigers and welcoming SO many new Tigers to campus. There were plenty of smiles, excited students, and teachers full of energy ready to make this an awesome year! 🐾

What an uplifting way to end the school year at Lake Asbury Junior High! LAJ students and staff celebrated a truly special moment as Landon C. had his dream come true with an incredible pep rally! The excitement was electric as guitars rang out and the school chorus sang his favorite Metallica song. Just moments later, Landon learned the amazing news: he's headed to Tampa to see Metallica live in concert! This heartwarming event was made even more special by the Kids Helping Kids Club, led by Mr. Will Wood, partnering with the Dreams Come True organization. Their dedication to compassion in action shines brightly and made this celebration and dream possible. #WeAreOneClay

Yearbook Distribution Day is tomorrow, May 19th! The yearbooks will be delivered to each student who ordered a yearbook during 5th period, and the students will be required to sign that they received their yearbook. If a student pre-ordered a yearbook and is absent tomorrow or checked out before 5th period, they will need to go to the technology lab to sign for and pick up their yearbook when they return to school. Just a reminder that yearbooks did sell out in March. There will be a very limited number of yearbooks available to sell on Wednesday, May 21st, after the morning announcements for $50.00, cash only, first come, first served. If you have any questions, please contact our yearbook advisor at maria.behnken@myoneclay.net
