Le Pera Elementary School

Parents: The summer food program will be taking place weekdays from June 2 through June 27 at the Wallace Dome. Breakfast is served from 7AM to 8AM and lunch is served from 11AM to 1PM. Students must be ages 0 to 18 and have to physically eat their meal in the dome.

Parents of Le Pera students: We have been informed that there is no power south of Poston. Due to the limited information we have, we will delay the start of school at Le Pera only for two hours. By that time, we should know how long the valley will be without power and determine whether or not Le Pera will have school today. Thank you for your patience.
