Home of the Academic Warriors!

Countdown to Winter Break with
12 Days of Cheer!

At Ludlow-Taylor, we aim to meet the specific needs of every child through a student-centered approach to teaching and learning that maximizes student outcomes academically, socially, and emotionally. We strive to ensure that families are informed and welcomed partners in their student’s education.

The Warrior Fund is an annual fundraising campaign to support LT’s students, teachers, and staff. Your support helps pay for our community events, teacher requests, academic support, subsidies for the aftercare program, teacher appreciation efforts, and more. This year, our goal is to raise $30,000 and get 75% participation from our school community. Please consider making a gift today!

School Addition: Project Update

This DCPS led project is an approximately 8,700 square foot addition to our school. 

The addition will contain classrooms, academic support areas, and administrative offices, including, among other spaces, two Early Childhood Education (ECE) classrooms and a workspace on the first floor, two classrooms that can be used for upper grades on the second floor and a laundry and Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) space on the third floor along with the potential for outdoor learning space. It will also include the design and installation of an exterior marquee sign and incorporate the required structural support system for a future floor addition for a separate, future modernization project.

DCPS maintains a website dedicated to this project

DCPS and LT are in the process of creating a Facility Improvement Team (“FIT”), an advisory group that includes school staff, parents and community members. The FIT provides insight into the school and community perspective on design elements and serves as a link to the broader community by sharing project information & materials. 

If you are interested in participating on the FIT, please email Jessica Bowron (ptovp1@ludlowtaylor.org). Of particular interest would be anyone with experience in design, construction and / or navigating either the DCPS or DGS bureaucracy.

 

Students of the Week: April 1

Ludlow-Taylor Has P.R.I.D.E.

P.R.I.D.E (Politeness, Respect, Integrity, Determination, Empathy) 
 
Ludlow-Taylor’s P.R.I.D.E. committee was formed to oversee student behavior and engagement, with an emphasis on positive interactions and social-emotional learning. 

Its initiatives include recognizing students of the week, implementing a buddy bench at recess,  establishing a student code of conduct, crafting student handbooks, and conducting author studies on books that teach character education. The committee will also resume the student ambassador program, where selected students serve as representatives that exemplify L-T P.R.I.D.E. 
 
The “Student of the Week” initiative highlights exceptional students that show P.R.I.D.E. Students are nominated by their homeroom teachers, receive a shout out during morning announcements, have their picture taken, and receive a special pencil.
