We are entering the 6th week of the semester already. Students have multiple grades in each of their classes to help communicate their learning. If a student does not complete an assignment, a 0 is entered into PowerSchool which can drastically impact their grade. Missing assignments need to be completed as soon as possible. Assignments more than 3 weeks late are not accepted for credit. Students check their grades on Tuesdays in S4S. Families can also monitor their student’s progress in PowerSchool. Please do not rely on Canvas to monitor grades. Not all assignments are entered into Canvas, but they are all entered in PowerSchool. Teachers are available after school in Scout Learning Lab and a late bus is available for students who need it. We’ll be sending out 6 week progress reports and WYTOPP scores from last year next week. Please review your student’s progress and let us know how we can help any students who are struggling.
Our cross country, volleyball, and football teams will be concluding their seasons over the next few weeks and our first winter season will be starting soon. Wrestling and girls basketball are up next. There is a meeting for students participating in wrestling and their families on Tuesday at 6:00 pm in the LMS library. The girls basketball meeting is on Wednesday at 5:30 in the LMS cafeteria. All students planning to participate in these activities and their families should attend. Wrestling practice begins on October 2nd and the first day of girls basketball practice is on October 9th. Students must have a current physical and signed code of conduct on file to practice or compete.
A student's mental health directly impacts their ability to learn and quality of life. Nationally and locally, we’ve seen a rise in the number of students living with anxiety. As a support for families, our district is hosting a webinar about Your Child’s Anxiety on September 26th at 6:00 PM. Does your child suffer from anxiety and you don’t know how to help them? Join us to learn strategies to help you respond to your child’s anxiety. When applied these skills will help the child and parent bond, allowing the child to identify and work through their anxiety more effectively. You can register right up to the last minute, even if you can't attend the live event. By registering, you will be added to the follow-up email list and receive a recording of the session the following day. Use this link to register: rmd.me/zZapcqffnnj
We are looking forward to everything that’s going on at school this week and to the UW homecoming festivities this weekend. We have home volleyball, football, and cross country this week. Our band will be playing in the parade on Saturday morning. We are truly fortunate to live in Laramie with all it has to offer. Thank you for sharing your student with us. Make it a great week.
