Student Records
The following registration and enrollment forms must be
completed and returned prior to the student’s first day of school:
1. H.R.S. form 6800605 immunization record signed by licensed
physician
2. Birth Certificate
3. Emergency information card submitted by your child’s teacher
4. Signed tuition agreement
Attendance
Parents are encouraged to schedule doctor’s appointments before
school, after school or during school break. Excessive absences or
tardiness will result in a loss of academic achievement and success.
Please do not send your child to school if they are ill. Please call
the office to inform us that your child will be absent. If your child
becomes ill the school will call to make arrangements for student
pickup.
Medication
It is extremely helpful to administer medication before and after
school hours. However, if a student must receive medication
during school hours the office staff will administer it only if
prescribed by your child’s physician. Parents/guardians must sign
a Medication Release Form for The Lake Mary Academy and
Music to administer medication to a child. All medication must
remain in the office.

Student Placement
Student placement shall be given at the discretion of the
administration. The Lake Mary Academy and Music takes all
elements into consideration when delegating class assignments.
Tuition and Fees
Tuition for all students is due the first of each month. Payments
are expected by the 5th day of the month. Please make payments
accordingly.
Report Cards and Progress Reports
Each student is graded on his or her performance in the classroom
at the middle and end of the year. Parent conferences are
scheduled three times during the school year to review their child’s
report card.
Parents and teachers may request additional
conferences at any time to review a student’s performance.
Volunteers
Parents are encouraged to visit the school, donate time whenever
possible and to share their talents and knowledge with the students.
Each classroom teacher needs a “Classroom Liaison” to help with
various activities throughout the year.
Lunch
There are two options for lunch at LMAM. Students may bring a
lunch from home or order the monthly lunch program.

The Lake Mary Academy and Music offers a healthy, catered
hot/cold lunch program available through a local vendor. Lunches
will be ordered monthly in advance. Menus will be presented the
week prior to the upcoming month and the order must be paid in
advance directly to the vendor.
All lunches from home should contain healthy foods. Please keep
in mind that it is difficult for teachers to heat or refrigerate food.
All LMAM children are required to display appropriate manners
during mealtime. We ask that parents reinforce good manners at
home.
Dress Code
Uniforms are required for all students of The Lake Mary Academy
and Music. The Lake Mary Academy and Music feels this
eliminates competition and encourages unity. Compliance with the
uniform requirement is mandatory.
Please label clothing
especially blazers, sweaters and jackets.
Discipline Code
According to the Department of Children and Families we are
required to provide a plan of action for behavior that is consistent
with The Lake Mary Academy and Music’s philosophy and
foundation. Our discipline policy is to work with all children in a
positive manner. We believe that all children need to have positive
experiences that encourage academic achievement, as well as
emotional and social development.
Five Year Outlook
The Lake Mary Academy and Music is continually working to
direct its students to be successful members in our community.

We are very proud to be a part of the much celebrated city of Lake
Mary. Our goal is to provide a stimulating environment that
emphasizes and effective cultural enrichment in the form of music
and art appreciation. The LMAM believes the importance of our
accelerated curriculum and plans to expand our teachings to
include Kindergarten. The Lake Mary Academy and Music asserts
that at this very young age, quality education cannot be achieved in
a crowded environment typically found at most public schools. As
a result we are planning to add a Kindergarten within the next five
years of service. Any families interested in joining our expansion
efforts are encouraged to inquire.
