LaBrae Local School District

Yard signs for display honoring LaBrae seniors are now available for sale at the Board of Education Office between the hours of 8:00 to 3:00.  Signs are $10.  These are a perfect way to publicly acknowledge your graduating senior.  Also, if your child is a senior next year, buying your sign now allows you to display it during the coming school year.  {Signs are paid for by the LaBrae Levy Committee; Karen Ancell, Treasurer}

In an effort to improve safety and limit the number of building entry points during the morning M.S./H.S. drop off, LaBrae is making adjustments to our morning drop off locations. Students are not permitted to enter the M.S./H.S. at the doors located on the west side of the Complex as permitted in prior years.  The three points of entry for all students will be the main high school entrance, the middle school entrance adjacent to the bus loading zone, and the main Event Entrance. When dropping off your middle school or high school student(s), we are requiring that parents use the driving lane directly along the M.S./H.S. entrance, if you enter the school campus from N. Leavitt, or the drop-off location in front of the Board of Education Office, if you are entering the school campus from Eagle Creek Dr.  Also, all student drivers must use the M.S. entrance or the Event Entrance.

The drop off zones will be marked with cones, and we encourage multiple vehicles drop off students at one time in the designated zones.  This should help expedite the drop off process and move the traffic through more efficiently.  Additionally, students are not to be dropped off in the main drive of the Complex or in the visitor/staff parking lot in front of the high school.  Doing so creates an unsafe environment where students then have to cross traffic in the main drive and/or the visitor parking lot in front of the Complex.

In order to prevent students from crossing through traffic, we ask that parents do not park along the main drive for student pick up.  Parents picking up their M.S./H.S. child are to use the driving lane adjacent to the school, or the parking lot in front of the Board of Education Office, which is directly behind the bus loading zone. Vehicles are prohibited from being in the bus loading zone during student drop-off/pick-up times.

It is important to eliminate, as practical as possible, any practices where students have to cross traffic as they enter or exit the building. Therefore, we kindly request that our parents join us in helping to make the morning/afternoon traffic environment at LaBrae a safe place for students.  Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated!

Please refer to the map below for the designated areas referred to above.

Students now have access to electronic books and audiobooks from NEOMIN and the Warren-Trumbull Public Library through SORA.  No library card is required.  Students simply use their LaBrae Google log-in and go to Gmail.  Locate the SORA app in the Google “Waffle” at the top right and then check out e-books from the “NEOMIN NE Ohio Management Information Network” library—or add the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library by selecting the menu (3 horizontal lines) in the upper right corner of the screen and adding that library.  Electronic materials may now be checked out.  Happy reading!!!

Scarlet Cohort: August 31st, First Day of School

Please note, that the opening of schools and the framework of the plan are always subject to change as circumstances continually evolve.  LaBrae continues its planning efforts and in the coming days anticipates providing a frequently asked questions document, virtual learning registration forms, student cohort lists, and transportation adjustments. 

A list of frequently asked questions is below.  The document name will add the date at the end so that parents can determine the most recent update to the FAQ's PDF.

This year LaBrae is foregoing the printing and mailing of our community newsletter in an effort to reduce expenses.  Please access the newsletter as a PDF below.  Should you have any questions, you are encouraged to contact the Superintendent's Office.

As we prepare for the coming school year, parents need to keep the following information in mind regarding immunization requirements for school attendance.

• Students entering grades K, 7, & 12, as well as students in any other grade who are newly enrolled at LaBrae, have immunization requirements.
• We do not know yet what school will look like in the fall but we must continue to prepare.
• Students entering 7^th grade must show proof of a Tdap & Menigitis vaccination.
• Students entering 12^th grade must show proof of a second Meningitis vaccine. * If the student is older than 16 & has not had the first Menigitis vaccine they will only need one. Please discuss your child’s vaccination status with his/her healthcare provider.
• Due to COVID-19 many routine doctor appointments were postponed or cancelled, thus it is important that parents contact their child's primary care physician to schedule vaccination appointments.
• Shot records are due in the clinic by October 12, 2020.  If you are unable to schedule an appointment until after October 12th due to COVID-19, please let the nurse know what date your student has an appointment. They will be listed as “in process” until vaccine verification is received
• Shot records may be mailed to school, faxed to 330-898-7808 ( grades 3-12), or 330- 898-1448 (grades K-2), or emailed to Mrs. Harper, the school nurse, at Sharron [dot] harperlabrae [dot] school
