SHREK THE MUSICAL- Students interested in auditioning for “Shrek, the Musical” can now sign up for audition times by submitting the application form posted in the Shrek Google Classroom (code tmrji1).  Sign-ups were due today. Auditions will be next week on February 26th, 27th, and 28th after school Please contact Mrs. Albers or Mr. Reilly ([email protected] or [email protected]) if you have any questions.

 

GETTYSBURG TRIP- The due date for deposits ($75- checks made out to LMS) as well as all paperwork associated with the trip is past due. If you have not submitted anything, and you have already decided that your child will not participate for any reason, please let us know that as well. Your assistance with these things is greatly appreciated!! Please contact me with any questions.

 

HIGH SCHOOL SCHEDULING INFORMATION NIGHT- Thank you very much to the LHS Guidance department for the presentation last night regarding the registration for our soon to be Freshman. Thank you also to all of our parents who attended. It is our hope that you found it informative and helpful. Please feel free to check the LHS webpage for a link regarding course registration. Please note that all of our eighth graders should register for courses at LHS regardless of their plans for next year. It is quite common for students to change plans last minute which leads to scrambling for courses; many of which are full. It is always easier to pull students’ names off of class lists who end up going to tech or magnet schools. Please contact us with any questions.

 

MILITARY AND FAMILY LIFE COUNSELING- We are very fortunate to have officially added to our LMS staff a Child and Youth Behavioral Military & Family Life Counselor. We are very please to introduce Ms. Stacey Cutler to LMS, and she will be here three days each week. This position is being funded by the Department of Defense for the purpose of supporting students of military families. As our military families know and the rest of us can imagine, the challenges these families face are quite unique. Ms. Cutler’s first priority will be to develop relationships with our students; especially those from military families. These families will receive information regarding this program in the mail along with a permission slip to be signed by any military parent or her/his spouse if you are interested in taking advantage of Ms. Cutler’s service and support. It is important to note that her support will be provided as needed, and all services and supports provided will be kept in strict confidence.

 

LMS YEARBOOK- The LMS yearbooks are now on sale. The cost is $37. You may purchase yearbooks either online on the LMS website or by bringing in a check or cash to Mr. O'Brien or Mr. Allen. Checks must be made out to LMS.
