Beginning August 31, Lexington Two will implement scheduled limits on student Chromebook functionality for middle school students.

Monday-Thursday: Chromebook functionality will be suspended from 10 p.m.-6:30 a.m.
Friday-Sunday: Chromebook functionality will be suspended from 8 p.m.-9 a.m.

We encourage families to check PowerSchool regularly and talk with students about any missing assignments.

Our Bulldogs have been growing and glowing on MAP!
Students recently completed MAP Reading and MAP Math and set individual growth goals based on their Spring 2026 scores. We are excited to share that we saw lots of growth across our classrooms!
