Thanks You from the LTES Staff...Dear London Towne Families,
Our school community is very fortunate to have so many dedicated and caring students and families who support our staff each and every day. During Staff Appreciation Week, our LTES community showed us how important and appreciated we are.
Special thanks to:
- All of you for the notes, cards, flowers, and treats
- Our PTA for the fabulous lunch from El Paso, the scrumptious desserts, and the gift cards
- Grace Covenant Church for their care and the delicious Crumbl Cookies
It was a great week around the Towne! We so appreciate all of you and thank you for making the 2024 Teacher/Staff Appreciation week such a great week around the Towne. It is a pleasure to work with our Lions daily and to partner with families and our LTES community.
Many thanks to the PTA and all the families who support the efforts of the LTES staff and students each day. You are much appreciated by us!
💙 LTES Staff

For Rising 7th Graders Only Required Immunizations Prior to 24-25 School YearImmunizations are required for all students entering 7th and 12th grades this fall. Visit the FCPS immunization webpage to learn about the required vaccines. Caregivers should ask their private healthcare provider or the health department to review their student's immunization record to ensure that their student has received these required immunizations.
It is important to schedule immunizations early in the summer, as seventh grade students must submit documentation of the Tdap and Meningococcal vaccines before they begin school in August. Twelfth grade students must submit documentation of the Meningococcal vaccine. Get more information on all student immunization requirements.
