Week of November 30

It’s Thanksgiving week and we have so much to be thankful for and to celebrate.  Our fall food drive wrapped up last Friday and it was awesome.  We collected 1083 items at LMS and our Student Leadership Team collected 907 items trick or treating for cans on Halloween for a grand total of 1990 items.  Everything we collected will be donated to Laramie Interfaith to help those in need in our community.  Thank you for supporting our fall food drive.



Our wrestling team wrapped up their season on Saturday at the conference meet in Cheyenne.  The Scouts saved their best wrestling for the end of the season and they are conference champions for the second year in a row!  We had 7 conference champions and many other place winners.  It’s great that the conference championship plaque will be staying in Laramie where it belongs.  Congratulations Scouts!



Fun Family Fitness Night is coming up on November 30th from 6:00-7:30 in the LMS gym and cafeteria.  There will be training on hands only CPR, fun activities, healthy food, and various community groups in attendance.  We hope all LMS students and their families will join us for an evening of fun activities and fellowship.  You can learn more about Fun Family Fitness Night by clicking this link. 



The lost and found has once again reached capacity.  We will be clearing all items out on Monday, November 27th and donating or disposing of them.  Please encourage your student to keep track of their belongings and to check the lost and found for anything they may be missing.  


During this season of gratitude, we can’t express how thankful we are that you have chosen to share your student with us. We appreciate your support and feedback and hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with your friends and family.  We are looking forward to seeing all of our students again on the 27th.

Week of November 13

 

Our Student Leadership Team is hosting a food drive.  They are collecting nonperishable items to be donated to the Laramie Interfaith Food Pantry. The grade that donates the most items will earn a pizza party at lunch. Each student who contributes an item will be entered into a drawing for various prizes.  Please support our efforts to help those in need and to shatter last year's record.


Thursday marks the 12 week point in the first semester.  Students who are earning a D or an F on Thursday will receive grade reports in the mail.  Grades can also be viewed on PowerSchool.  Please check your student's grades with them and make a plan for improvement if necessary.  Students can receive extra support during Scout Learning Lab on Monday-Thursday and we will be having Saturday Scout Learning Lab on 11/18, 12/2, and 12/16.  Let's work together to help all student be current on their learning before winter break. 

We celebrate American Education Week this week.  American Education Week is a week to celebrate public schools and is sponsored by the US Department of Education, the National Education Association, the American Legion, as well as most professional education organizations. American Education Week is the perfect time to celebrate the extraordinary collaboration of so many different groups of people in our District contributing to our students' education. Thank you to our teachers, specialists, paraeducators, administrative assistance, bus drivers, and custodians.  You're the best! 

It's going to be another fun-filled and exciting week at Laramie Middle School.  We are having a lot of fun and our students are working very hard.  We appreciate your continued support and feedback.  Make it a great week.
