PFO
The LMS PFO is an organization of parents working together to support LMS. We raise funds to provide support for school initiatives and welcome anyone who would like to join to our monthly meetings. Keep an eye out for meeting dates and Mrs. Corum’s weekly email or on our LMS PFO Facebook page.
If you would like to be added to our email list, please send an email to lmspfo@gmail.com.
How can I help?
Students at LMS earn PRIDE cards for demonstrating outstanding PRIDE qualities--Positive, Respect, Integrity, Determination, Engagement. When they earn a PRIDE card, they are able to redeem it in the school office for a small prize. PFO sponsors these prizes. If you would like to donate small prizes, you can drop them off in the school office or shop off our Amazon Wish List!

Additionally, our Clubs needs some supplies...you can donate to those here:
All donations are appreciated!
