Hello, Lexington families! Our annual Parent/Teacher Conference dates are set for Tuesday, October 6th and Thursday, October 8th this year. We are continuing to use our online sign-up to allow parents to select the teacher(s), date, and time that best fits for each family.

You will need a verifiable email address to complete this process online. If you do not have internet access to schedule online, please call the elementary office (309) 365-2741 and we will be happy to assist you in signing up for a conference.

Elementary - We ask that you schedule a time with your child’s homeroom teacher, and we encourage you to schedule with any specials (art, gym, music, STEM) teachers if you wish. If you prefer to register for a virtual conference, once you complete the online registration please email your student's teacher to let him/her know that you will be attending virtually. Your student's teacher will send you an email with the zoom link attached for your specific conference. Otherwise, we will plan to see you in person.

You can access this sign-up by clicking on this link: https://ptcfast.com/schools/Lexington_School_District.

If you have any questions or need help with scheduling, please contact Mrs. Barber at abarber@lexington.k12.il.us or call the office (309)365-2741. Thank you!

Unlocking worlds of wonder through a toy in their hand.

We are excited to share that Lexington CUSD7 has received a grant from the Illinois Retired Teachers Association Foundation (IRTAF) to expand hands-on STEM learning for our students! Grant funds will purchase Cubelets robotics kits and math lockboxes, giving students more opportunities to build, experiment, solve puzzles, collaborate, and strengthen critical-thinking skills during SMART Summer Camp and throughout the school year. Thank you, IRTAF, for investing in our students and helping us make learning hands-on, engaging, and fun! 🤖🔐💜
