A new club at the HS, Helping Paws, is going to have a Blanket Drive to support Myles Ahead the week of November 4th. The club will to be collecting blankets, used clothing, towels, and other scrap fabric to donate to them to use in their facilities to keep the animals warm and for cleaning. The students plan to use all of the scrap fabrics that they receive to make larger blankets for the pets before donation, so no item is too small!

LMMS and AFJROTC will once again be participating in DAV’s Field of Flags fundraiser.

DAV’s Field of Flags empowers our community to set up fields of American flags to honor local veterans and raise critical funds to support our ill and injured heroes.

Each flag represents one veteran – and our unwavering commitment to serving all veterans after they’ve sacrificed so much for our country.

All donations raise critical funds to support DAV’s life-changing services for veterans in need and their families.

The Field of Flags will be set up the week of Veteran’s Day. You can find our building donation page at : https://bit.ly/LMMS2024DAV

DID YOU KNOW? By the age of three, a child’s brain is already 80% developed, and, by the time a child enters kindergarten, they must already know thousands of words in order to succeed in the classroom. Reading aloud to a child and giving them access to books is the best way to ensure they are prepared to enter kindergarten.

The Ohio Governor’s Imagination Library wants to start a new chapter in early childhood literacy throughout Ohio by providing families with books. With the goal of preparing students entering Kindergarten for success in the classroom, the Imagination Library program will send a customized book to your child each month from birth until age five. Sign up is easy and FREE! Give your Panther the gift of reading & enroll today.
