At LMS our fundamental purpose is student learning. In support of our purpose, the Scout Learning Lab (SLL) has been developed to provide the time and support for students to complete work deficiencies and to gain understanding of the necessary concepts required for mastery of content.
A deficiency might include, but is not limited to, incomplete or failed assignments, projects, or any assigned task important to the learning process. SLL will be available before school, after school, during lunch, and on designated Saturday mornings. We are committed to partnering with parents and students to ensure academic excellence. If you have any questions or would like to request a time to meet about your child’s progress, please contact 307-721-4430. The levels of support included in the SLL structure are outlined below.
Optional Scout Learning Lab: before school 7:30-8:00 a.m. M-F in the teacher’s classroom and after school Monday-Friday from 3:00-3:30 in teachers’ classrooms. Students may also choose to attend Saturday sessions.
Required SLL:
Based on habitual deficiencies and/or failure to effectively utilize optional SLL, students will be assigned to following:
Lunch SLL: Teachers may assign lunch SLL to address learning deficiencies. Students are to retrieve their lunch and report to the appropriate classroom. Students should go to the front of the lunch line. If students complete their missing work satisfactorily prior to the end of their lunch period, they will be dismissed.
After school SLL: from 3:00 – 3:30 p.m. Monday-Friday in the assigning teacher’s classroom. Students will be assigned to after school SLL, based on habitual deficiencies. Late buses are available and depart the school at approximately 4:00. Students riding the late bus will continue to work in the cafeteria from 3:30-4:00.
Saturday SLL: from 8:00-11:00 on select Saturdays. Extended opportunity for students who have habitual deficiencies that have not been corrected during other times. Students will be assigned by classroom teachers, in consultation with administrative team, to Saturday SLL.
- For students who have continued deficiencies even after extensive use of SLL.
- If students complete the outstanding deficiencies prior to the scheduled Saturday SLL, they will not be required to attend. When students complete their deficiencies, they will be excused with parental consent.
Note: If students willfully refuse to engage in SLL in a meaningful way, we will respond with a required meeting involving the student, parent(s), teaching team, guidance, and administration to develop a plan.
We have also tweaked the procedures for students who wish to purchase a la carte items during lunch. Students will positive lunch balances will be able to use those funds to purchase a la carte items. Students with negative balances will not be able to charge a la carte items, but will be able to purchase a la carte with cash. No student will be denied a lunch based on the status of their lunch account.
