Halloween is approaching quickly and many students would like to show their spooky spirit by wearing a costume to school. This is something that has been done in the past and we will continue this year. In order to accommodate learning, costumes must meet a few conditions.
Costumes must adhere to the district dress code. Weapons, gore, face paint, and masks are prohibited. Students must be able to participate in classroom activities and not disrupt the learning of others. For example, a giant inflatable T-Rex costume makes it hard to sit and for others to see. Students may have to change for certain classes such as PE and industrial arts. We are looking forward to a safe and festive Halloween at LMS. If your student has any specific questions regarding their costume, please direct them to one of the principals.
Also, this week is the cut off for late and missing work from the first part of the school year. If your student has any late or missing assignments they need to be in by the end of the week in order to receive credit. Extra help is available during Scout Learning Lab after school daily and this Saturday from 8-11.
The weather has turned colder in typical Wyoming fashion. If the windchill is above zero, we will allow students to go outside during lunch. Many middle school students continue to dress for the summer during the winter. Please encourage your student to dress for the weather. I know they often feel that they are only walking from the bus to the school, but buses break down, schools lose power, things happen. Shorts and sandals certainly look cool, but they are not the best in an emergency situation.
