Principal's Message
August 2023
Dear Viking Families,
I hope this message finds you all healthy and well. Our staff has been working hard to prepare
for the new school year that begins on Monday, August 28th. There was much to celebrate during the
2022-23 school year. These are just a
few of the highlights.
• $10.7 million in financial assistance was
awarded to the members of the Class of 2023.
• Ground was officially broken for our new
construction. Our football field has
given way to preparation for new parking lots and the building foundation to be
poured by the end of this calendar year.
• New community partnerships were formed with
Changing Lives at Home.
• Our Boys Soccer team were Regional Champions.
• Successful implementation of our Distance
Learning Program
The 2023-24 school year offers so much more for our students
and families – increased staffing; a Dean of Students to support various school
initiatives; and the implementation of S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Time, an enrichment
period that will allow for students to focus on academic supports as well as participation
in various club, organizations and workshops are just a few of the changes this
coming school year.
All students will begin school on Monday, August 28th. Doors will open at 7:15 AM, school starts at
7:30 AM and students will be dismissed from school at 2:15 PM. Please take note of the following items as
you prepare for the start of school:
• Back to School Night will be Thursday, August
24th from 5:30 – 7:30 PM. Please see the
enclosed flier for specifics. There will
be many workshop opportunities for families to participate in to learn more
about our programming for the year.
• Transportation routes will be posted to our
school website when they are received, typically the week prior to the start of
school.
• Updated contact information needed! Every year, we are required to update contact
information for families. Included in
this letter is a very important student contact sheet that we would appreciate
you completing and returning to school on the first day of school. I cannot stress how important it is that we
have the most current and accurate contact information for our families.
• Student Devices: All students should bring their
device and charger with them every day, especially the first two weeks of
school.
On behalf of the administration and staff here at Lansdowne,
we look forward to the return of our students. I personally look forward to
meeting you at our Back-to-School event and throughout the year. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you
have any questions, concerns, or comments.
With gratitude,
Allison Seymour
Principal
