LCMS Bobcat Parents and Families,
Monday, February 26th will be an A Day.
Parent-Teacher Conferences on Wednesday, February 28th
Parent-teacher conferences will take place on Wednesday, February 28th from 3:45 to 7:00 p.m. I encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to stay connected with your child’s teachers about your child’s academic progress. Conferences play an important role in fostering collaboration, understanding, and support in your child's educational journey. We are eager to connect with you as we partner to provide the best possible middle school experience!
Also on Wednesday, February 28th, our LCPS Career & Technical Education program is hosting CTE Showcase Night at Louisa County High School from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m., and elementary students will be competing in the annual CTE STEAM Cup Challenge starting at 5:00 p.m.! There will be student demonstrations and prize raffles, and for five dollars, you can schedule an oil change or salon service, or pick up a $5 BBQ dinner while supplies last! Check out
www.lcpscte.org/showcase for more information and to sign up for services.
Clubs on Thursday, February 29th
We will have clubs at the end of the day on Thursday, February 29th! This is such an exciting time for our Bobcats where each student is involved in their unique activity, so we ask that parents and families avoid picking up students for an early dismissal after 2:15 if possible, since students will be in clubs.
Roadside Cleanup Community Service Project on Tuesday, March 5th
We will have an Asynchronous Learning Day on Tuesday, March 5th. LCMS Bobcat students and staff will be working together to clean up roadsides near our school! This is an excellent opportunity for students to be involved in a service project that benefits our community. Lunch will be provided in appreciation for students’ efforts! Please complete, sign, and return the
permission form to the LCMS main office by Wednesday, February 28th to participate!

The LCMS Health/PE Department will conclude the American Heart Challenge this week! Students can still join by going to their Health/PE Google Classroom.
Please take a few minutes to register your student for our American Heart Challenge (AHC) under Louisa County Middle School and learn the lifesaving skill of Hands-Only CPR as a family at
