It is Staff Appreciation Week in Lexington County School District Three! This special week (May 8th through 12th) is set aside each year to recognize every member of the Panther Family and to show our thanks for all of the work they do day in and day out to help our students learn and grow! If you'd like to send a note of thanks to a Lexington Three staff member who made a difference in your life, send an email to happymail@lex3.org! (Be sure to include the name of the individual who is being recognized in the body of the email as well as provide a brief explanation about how the individual made an impact on you.) The messages will be forwarded along to the appropriate person and could even be featured on one of our social media pages!
In 2022, the South Carolina General Assembly unanimously passed S.1103, otherwise known as the South Carolina Child ID law. As a result, Lexington County School District Three has been given at-home child ID kits that are available for each student. To obtain a kit for your student(s), please contact your child's school. Our schools will work with parents to arrange a pick up time. ID kits may also be sent home with students from school when requested.
These are inkless, at-home kits that are stored by parents and guardians that never enter a database. This kit should take less than two minutes to complete and is designed to be stored solely by you as a parent or guardian in a cool, dry, and safe place at home. Please understand there is no obligation to request or use the kit. However, it will allow you to have your child’s vital information, fingerprints, and DNA in a safe place should you ever need it. These kits are to be STORED AT HOME and should only be given to law enforcement in case of an emergency.
Monday, January 30th marks the 100th day of school in Lexington County School District Three! What a wonderful school year we have had thus far!
Panther Families - Don't forget that our schools and District Office are CLOSED on Monday, January 16th in recognition of the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. We will re-open for our regularly scheduled hours on Tuesday, January 17th.
Panther Parents/Guardians - Lexington Three is staying apprised of the storm situation in our area and wants to assure you that our students are safe inside of our buildings along with our staff members. Should any further updates need to occur, they will go out via our phone messaging system (text and voice call), Lex 3 app, website, and on our social media pages. Stay safe!
