Week of February 26

Scheduling for the 2024-2025 school year has begun.  Rising freshmen should have turned their LHS course selection forms into the LMS main office last week.  Rising 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students should use the appropriate link to complete their schedule choices for next year if they haven’t already done so.  LMS course descriptions can be found in our curriculum guide.  When scheduling, we try our best to place students in the classes they have selected.  However, that’s not always possible so it’s very important that students select alternative courses that they are interested in.  If students do not complete the course request form, or fail to select alternative courses, they will be placed in whatever classes are available. 

Our 7th grade students will be taking the writing portion of WYTOPP next Monday, March 4th.  All other WYTOPP tests will take place at the end of April. We will follow a modified 'even' day schedule next Monday to accommodate testing.  All students will report to S4S on Monday.  Seventh grade students will take the writing test during a two hour testing block.  Sixth and eighth grade students will complete other activities in their S4S classes.  Due to testing, our schedule next week will be Even, Odd, Even, Odd, All.  We are looking forward to our students rocking the WYTOPP writing test next week. 

We are celebrating Kindness Week this week. Our Student Leadership Team has a variety of activities planned to encourage kindness in our school and community.  Please talk to your student about ways they can show kindness to themselves and others this week and beyond.

Spring break is quickly approaching.  We have a number of exciting activities between now and then including music contests and festivals, swim meets, a school dance, and Spring Spirit Week. Every day matters.  Please support your student by having them in school every day, on time, and ready to learn between now and Spring Break.  Make it a great week.
