Good afternoon, this is your Principal Mrs. Beam calling with our weekly updates.

We are still in need of donations for individually wrapped candy for the event. If you would like to donate please send candy to the front office. Information will be sent home this week!

Good afternoon, this is Esme, a 4th Grader and your Assistant Principal Mrs. Davis, calling with our weekly updates.
September is Attendance Awareness Month and our 5th grade students won this week's challenge with 96.7% followed VERY closely by our 1st graders at 96.6% present. The grade-level that has the highest attendance percentage at the end of September will receive an ice cream Sundae party at recess. Also, ANY student who comes to school EVERY day in September will be entered into a drawing for some fun prizes. Esme, doesn’t that sound amazing?
YES! This is just a reminder that school will be closed tomorrow, September 7th for Labor Day Holiday. There will be no school for staff or students.

Friday is our first All-Pro Dads program beginning at 7:15am in the media center. Any special family member may attend All-Pro Dads with their student. We will have doughnuts, coffee, and focus on strengthening family relationships. I can’t wait to see you there!

Looking ahead, progress reports will go home on September 14th and our next Open PTO meeting will be on September 15th at 3:00.
Car riders, Please pull all the way forward to the top of the awning to help keep our car rider line moving efficiently. We encourage students to practice independence by getting out of the car on their own. Parents, please remain in your vehicles. If your child needs help buckling or unbuckling, please pull up past the purple cone or pull across the street so you can safely assist them without holding up the line.
Lastly, we are happy to celebrate that S. Ray Lowder met academic growth for the 25-26 school year. Our school performance score grew 3 points and is the highest score for us in the last 5 years.

Our PreK students will begin dismissal at 2:15pm from the bus parking lot. Parents need to pull in the bus lot, loop around, and line the sidewalk/awning area beginning at the stop sign and circling around through the first painted bus spot. DO NOT drive around the buses.
On Tuesday, our 3rd grade parents are invited to a Read-To-Achieve night from 6:00-7:00, where you will learn about expectations and requirements for your student this year. 3rd grade parents will gather in the library for more information from their teachers.
Also on Tuesday is S. Ray Lowder’s Chick-fil-a Spirit Night between 5:00-7:00pm. Skip cooking and come support our school.
This coming Friday is another Future Wolves Friday! Staff and students are invited to wear black and gold of their Lincolnton High School attire to support our Wolves.
September is Attendance Awareness Month and we have some great things planned for our students! Think about Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind, Let’s set a goal and make a plan to reach it. The grade-level that has the highest attendance percentage at the end of September will receive an ice cream Sundae party at recess. We will be announcing the leaderboard after each week. Also, ANY student who comes to school EVERY day in September will be entered into a drawing for some fun prizes.
This is just a reminder that school will be closed on Monday September 7 for Labor Day Holiday. There will be no school for staff or students.
We hope you all have a great afternoon and we will see you tomorrow. Remember to Lead the Lowder Way - Every Lion, Every Day!
DATE CHANGE: Lincolnton High School has moved its varsity football game to Thursday, August 27, 2026, instead of Friday. Because of the schedule change, S.

Good afternoon, this is Laney, a 5th grader here at S. Ray Lowder and your Principal Mrs Beam calling with our weekly updates.
As a reminder, our doors open at 7:20 AM daily, and breakfast and lunch are free for all students. As we continue growing leaders, please remind your students that if they are able to open the door and get out of the car independently we would appreciate them doing so. This is a great way for us to practice Habit 1. Being proactive means taking responsibility for what we can control and doing things for ourselves when we are able. Even something as simple as getting out of the car by ourselves helps build confidence, responsibility, and leadership skills. Dismissal begins at 2:40 PM. If your student is a car rider, you must have your car tag and number visible. If you still need a car tag, please contact the front office.
We wanted to send a quick reminder that squishies and small toys are not allowed at school. While we understand that these toys can be fun and enjoyable, they can become a distraction during learning time and take away from students’ focus in the classroom.
Congratulations to our winners for our first nine-weeks Fast Pass drawing! Car numbers 47, 93, 127, and 151.
A reminder for our Pre-K families: staggered days will be August 27th and 28th, and all Pre-K students will attend school on Monday, August 31st. For arrival, our Pre-K parents need to park in the front of the school behind the orange cone to wait on the Pre-K line to begin at 7:45am. Our PreK students will begin dismissal at 2:15pm from the bus parking lot. Parents need to pull in the bus lot, loop around, and line the sidewalk/awning area beginning at the stop sign, circling around through the first painted bus spot. DO NOT drive around the buses. This will allow us to have all Pre-K dismissed from a central location before we dismiss remaining car and bus riders.
Also parents, starting tomorrow we ask that you do not come in and check your student out after 2:00pm. If you need to check your child out for an appointment or other reason we kindly ask that you do it before 2:00pm. Late check outs are causing congestion and confusion as students are transitioning from outside, packing up, and preparing for dismissal. We hope you understand that the safety of all students is our top priority.
We are ready for another wonderful week of learning and leading the Lowder way! Have a wonderful evening and we will see you tomorrow!

Parents need to pull in the bus lot, loop around, and line the sidewalk/awning area beginning at the stop sign, circling around through the first painted bus spot. DO NOT drive around the buses. This will allow us to have all Pre-K dismissed from a central location before we dismiss remaining car and bus riders.
Also parents, starting tomorrow we ask that you do not come in and check your student out after 2:00pm. If you need to check your child out for an appointment or other reason we kindly ask that you do it before 2:00pm. Late check outs are causing congestion and confusion as students are transitioning from outside, packing up, and preparing for dismissal. We hope you understand that the safety of all students is our top priority.
We are ready for another wonderful week of learning and leading the Lowder way! Have a wonderful evening and we will see you tomorrow!
