World Kindness Day and Bobcat Pride Time on Wednesday, November 13th
Wednesday, November 13th is recognized as World Kindness Day, which is a global observance dedicated to promoting and celebrating acts of kindness. This day serves as a reminder of the positive impact that kindness can have on individuals, communities, and the world at large. It highlights the importance of empathy, understanding, and cooperation to create a more harmonious and caring world.
At LCMS, we will wear our Kindness shirts on Wednesday, November 13th and we will have Bobcat Pride time with an Olweus lesson during WIN Block!
Kindness Cart prizes will be given out to random winners who are wearing their Kindness shirts on Wednesday. The Bobcat Pride Spirit Banners will be up for grabs based on which grade level hallways (even vs odd) have the most students wearing their Kindness shirts!
Veterans Day Chorus Performance on Thursday, November 14th
We are excited to invite you to a special Veterans Day chorus performance featuring our talented middle school students on Thursday, November 14th, at 6:30 p.m. in the LCMS Forum. Our chorus has been working hard to prepare a memorable evening of patriotic songs honoring those who have served our country. We encourage you to bring a veteran to share in this heartfelt tribute. Your presence and support mean the world to our students and will make the event even more special.
Interim Reports on Friday, November 15th
Interim Reports will come home with students on Friday, November 15th. As we progress through the school year, I encourage you to reach out to your child’s teachers with any questions or concerns, or just to connect with them to hear about your child’s continued growth. You can monitor your child’s academic progress by using the online PowerSchool Parent Portal where you are able to see the detailed grade book for each class, as well as attendance and tardy information. Please call our office if you need assistance with logging into the PowerSchool Parent Portal.
