Dear Logan Families,
Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! If you are new to our school community, my name is Will Wright, and I am the principal here at Logan. I am so excited to welcome the Logan community back for a new school year, and I can’t wait to see everyone!
Below you’ll find information about the launch of our school year. I typically send a weekly newsletter to families with important information about our school and district on Mondays. These newsletters are posted in blog format, and I encourage families to bookmark a link to the blog webpage. This format allows families to find all the information in one place without having to search your emails. There is also a translation feature that allows families to translate the text into any language. Simply select your language preference from the list on the right side. Please bookmark the page and visit it as frequently as you’d like. Here’s the link.
In my first Weekly Update, I’ve included information about:
New Family Orientation
Welcome Back Meet and Greet
Class Placement Notifications
First Day of School
PTSO Welcome Back Coffee
School Calendars
Free Breakfast & Lunch 2024-2025
Important Upcoming Dates
I’ll have a lot more information to share in the coming days. In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Will Wright
New Family Orientation
New to Logan? Please join us on Thursday, August 22, 2024 at 3:45pm for a New Family Orientation. We will have a tour of the building, share some vital information about starting the year at Logan, and answer your questions. You will also have some time to meet other new families. Afterwards, you can join the whole school community for the Welcome Back Meet and Greet.
Welcome Back Meet and Greet
Please join us on Thursday, August 22, 2024 for our Welcome Back Meet and Greet. The event will take place from 4:30pm - 5:30pm on the Lower Elementary Playground (weather permitting). Come and meet your child’s teachers, see old and new friends, and enjoy a delicious popsicle!
Class Placement Notification
Class placement notifications will be sent via email on Tuesday, August 20, 2024. Notifications will go out in the evening. Please wait until Wednesday, August 21 to contact the Logan office if you do not receive your child’s class placement notification.
We take great care in creating balanced classes. We consider many variables when creating these classes, and we are confident these groupings will meet the needs of our students. If you feel that you need to discuss your child’s placement, we ask all families to complete the first two weeks of school before contacting me.
First Day of School
The first day of school is Monday, August 26, 2024. The first bell rings at 8:42am and school begins at 8:45am. We will dismiss at 3:48pm.
PTSO Welcome Back Coffee
Families are invited to join us for a welcome back coffee on the first day of school, Monday, August 28 at immediately after drop off. It will be an opportunity to meet other families as well as some of our PTSO representatives. We hope to see you there!
School Calendars
Families can review the district calendar on the district’s calendar page. Families can subscribe to Logan’s Community Calendar using this link. It is a Google calendar. We will be adding events to this calendar in the coming days.
Free Breakfast & Lunch 2024-2025
A breakfast program is available to any student every morning in the school cafeteria. No advance ordering is required. Breakfast typically includes these choices: cold cereal, bagel, cheese stick, muffin, waffle, milk and juice. Students may bring a lunch from home or eat a school lunch. Menus are available online.
For the 2024-2025 school year, lunch and breakfast is free for all students. As part of the Michigan law that provides free lunch to all students, all families, regardless of income, must complete the free and reduced lunch application. These applications are vital to our district’s funding, enabling us to secure crucial financial support from state and federal governments. Completing the application takes a few minutes; you only need one per household. The application will be available in opening day packets, at the office, and online.
