This week is underway and we are already preparing for our homecoming festivities next week. Homecoming is a great time to build community and show your Scout Pride. During homecoming week there are many fun activities including dress up themes for each day, fun activities during lunch, LHS homecoming march through our building, home competition for volleyball and cross country, the LHS football game on Friday night, and our band will be in the UW parade on Saturday. We encourage all Scouts to participate in as many homecoming week activities as possible.
Students will receive a picture packet during S4S this week. If you ordered pictures, they will be in the packet. If you didn’t order pictures, there is a code in the packet in case you would like to. If your student was absent on picture day, or their smile was not all they hoped it could be, retakes are on Tuesday, October 14th.
If your family is facing challenges accessing enough nutritious food on the weekends, the Interfaith Backpack Program is here to help. This community-supported program provides students in Laramie with backpacks full of healthy breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and snacks every weekend during the school year. Backpacks are discreetly distributed every Friday after school to protect your child’s privacy. If you think your student could benefit or you want to learn more, please reach out to Lisa Theis, the School Success Liaison here at Laramie Middle School.
Next week is already the sixth week of the school year. Progress reports will go out at the end of the day on October 3rd. Please review your student’s report with them and identify areas of need and areas of celebration. Scout Learning Lab is available to all students Monday- Thursday if they need additional time and support to generate their learning.
As the weather cools and shorts fade away for the season, please remember that pajama pants and slippers are a violation of our dress code. We want students to get up, get dressed, and feel good about being ready for the day. This is an important career and life skill. Thank you for your continued support and feedback. Make it a great week.
