LCMS Bobcat Parents and Families,
Today was an amazing day at LCMS as we observed Random Acts of Kindness Day! Ask your child to share about the special Bobcat Pride Time with an Olweus lesson during WIN block. During lunch, the Bobcats Spreading Kindness Club offered kindness notes for students to share with their friends and families, and students were randomly selected to choose prizes, including kindness bracelets, pencils, bookmarks, and more from the Kindness Cart! Kindness is the foundation of our positive school culture at LCMS; let’s keep the acts of kindness going today and every day!
The good times will keep rolling this week…
English Benchmark Test Tomorrow, Wednesday, February 18th
Bobcats will take the English benchmark test tomorrow, Wednesday, February 18th. We will have an alternate bell schedule, which will slightly impact lunch shift times. It is always important for students to bring their fully charged Chromebooks to school, and it will be especially important for the English benchmark test tomorrow.
Parent-Teacher Conferences Tomorrow, Wednesday, February 18th
Parent-teacher conferences will take place tomorrow, Wednesday, February 18th from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to stay connected with your child’s teachers about your child’s academic progress. Conferences are not just for talking about concerns; it is a great opportunity to get a glimpse of your child’s school day, make connections, and even check out our new LCMS addition! We are eager to connect with you as we partner to provide the best possible middle school experience! We hope you will stop by LCMS tomorrow between 4:00 and 7:00 p.m.!
Also tomorrow evening from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m., the Career and Technical Education Department will be hosting students, parents, and community members at the annual CTE Showcase Night & STEAM Cup! Come out and see our students hard at work on projects, demonstrations, and practicing their skills by providing services. Simultaneously, students from our elementary schools will be competing in the annual STEAM Cup event from 5:00 to 6:30 pm. Watch them collaborate, think critically, and problem-solve their way to victory!
