Week of November 26

We are thankful to be back in session after the Thanksgiving break.  The holiday is a wonderful opportunity to connect with family and friends as we reflect on what we are grateful for.  Vacation breaks provide natural milestones within the school year.  Looking at the calendar, we have four weeks of school until our next big milestone, winter break.  We are excited to work with all students to make the next month challenging, engaging, and fulfilling.  The first semester ends two weeks after the winter break, so now is the time to solidify our learning for the first half of the year and to lay the foundation for a strong second half.

The LMS student newspaper, The Scout Shout, has been released their latest publication.  Mrs. Baas, Mrs. Thomsen, and the dedicated students who make up the Scout Shout newsroom have been working hard to put together an informative and quality publication. Please click here to access the first edition of the Scout Shout for the 2018-19 school year.

As wrestling and girls basketball wind down, nordic skiing is set to begin.  Students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades can participate in nordic skiing.  Students must have a sports physical on file, a signed code of conduct, and provide their own equipment to participate in nordic skiing.  There is a nordic skiing informational meeting for students and families on Thursday, November 29th at 5:30 pm in the LMS cafeteria.  All students planning to participate in nordic skiing and their families should attend.
