LMS News

Welcome to the new school year! We are mailing letters to provide all families with important information to help prepare for a successful start to the year.

In this mailing, you will find a calendar of events, school contact information, and staff information. This mailing will also include health forms. Students in 7th grade should return their dental and health forms, while students in 8th grade should return their health forms.

Please review the materials carefully and complete any required forms as soon as possible. If you have any questions or need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the school office.

We look forward to partnering with you and your child for a wonderful school year.

Thank you.
