Lexington R-V School District Announces Early Dismissal
The Lexington R-V School District will dismiss early today due to the potential for severe weather later this afternoon.
We are closely monitoring updated forecasts, which indicate an increased likelihood of strong to severe storms moving into our area during the afternoon and evening hours. Out of an abundance of caution and to ensure the safety of our students and staff, the district has decided to release students early.
Early dismissal times:
High School: 1:00 PM
Middle School: 1:00 PM
Elementary: 1:15 PM
ECC: 1:15 PM
No Afternoon Lex La Ray classes.
Bus routes will operate according to the adjusted schedule, and students will arrive home earlier than usual. This decision is intended to allow buses and families to travel safely before severe weather arrives.
The National Weather Service has indicated the possibility of large hail, damaging winds, and isolated tornadoes.
All planned after-school activities have been canceled or postponed. Additional communication will come from coaches and sponsors.
We appreciate your understanding and flexibility. Please reach out to your child's building or the Board of Education with any questions.

“Giving back AND iced🥶 coffee as you drop the kids off at school?!? Name a better combo… you can’t 🤷🏻♀️.
Zen Zone 🧘and River Reader 📚are partnering up to raise money for a 26-27 Back to School Pool Party. 🌊🌞 Zen Zone students are very focused on community-building, creating inclusive spaces, and HAVING FUN! We’ve got BIG plans for this party, but we need some help to make it happen.
🧋16oz cold brew, your choice of milk, and a few popular flavor choices will be available for $4.
Come through starting at 7:00 a.m. (kids to drop off or not) and the Zen Zone yogis and Ms. Hunsaker will make you a delicious morning treat. We will stop serving at 8:00, earlier if supplies run out. 100% of supplies and proceeds are being generously donated to Zen Zone’s party fund by River Reader.
We’ll see you in the car rider line! 🚗🚙”

Each week, LMS recognizes a student from each grade level that #AnswerTheCall like a Minuteman! See the images of the students who were recognized by their teachers during lunch for being great contributors to our Lexington Middle School Community!
Daily efforts may go unnoticed, but not at LMS! Just like the cannonball in the Lafayette County Courthouse, we remember the moments that #MakeAnImpact .
If you recognize one of the students pictured, please reach out to their parents/guardians and congratulate them on this recognition!

This week’s staff recognition post goes to Mrs. Schumacher, our Assistant Principal at LMS! She strives to #MakeAnImpact by meeting students where they are while giving them accountability and grace! Mrs. Schumacher is always in the hallway interacting with students and giving them exactly what they need. She has been a staple in the building and has helped steer the building to the greatness that has been achieved over the past couple of years. Mrs. Schumacher has worked hard to support staff and students in all of their learning efforts.
As the 2025-26 School year continues, please reach out to Mr. Schmidt (tschmidt@lexr5.org) and let us know the great things that our staff is doing! We want to recognize the staff members for their hard work and dedication. Leave some positive comments for Mrs. Schumacher below as well!
