Theodore Roosevelt is credited as the original orator of the line, but John C. Maxwell made it relevant to education when he added the word students instead of people, stating, “students don’t care what you
know, until they know that you care.” For the last two years Laramie Middle School has been utilizing
practices from Capturing Kids’ Hearts to create and sustain a culture of respect and belonging. As a
result of these efforts, Laramie Middle School has been named a Capturing Kids’ Hearts National Showcase School. This award spotlights campuses that go above and beyond in creating a safe and welcoming environment where students are relationally connected to school and eager to learn. There are over 1700 schools that are eligible for this recognition and LMS was one of only 376 U.S. campuses selected as a 2021-2022 Capturing Kids’ Hearts National Showcase School. Because of the rigor of the evaluation process, the Capturing Kids’ Hearts National Showcase School award is both a high aspiration and an exemplary recognition of excellence.

Thank you to everyone who participated in and supported the 2022 Hapi-ness 5K. It was a beautiful day for a run/walk and the student leadership team did an amazing job organizing the race. We are so proud of their work and humbled by the outpouring of support from our community. The funds raised will be used to help Laramie families in need.
I can't believe there is less than a month left in this school year. It's been a whirlwind and we are looking forward to finishing strong. Don't miss out on commemorating this school year with an award winning yearbook. There are less than 30 yearbooks left. Use this link to order your yearbook before it's too late!
