We do have a Spirit Week coming up September 16-20. This coincides with the high school Homecoming, whose theme is Wizard of Oz. Our themes will match theirs and will be as follows:
Monday: SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW (wear the same color from head to toe)
Tuesday: TWISTER TUESDAY (wacky/tacky, mismatched day)
Wednesday: WHICH WITCH IS WHICH (Twin Day)
Thursday: THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME (pajama day)
Friday: LIONS AND TIGERS AND LANCERS OH MY! (Lakewood Spirit Day)
The HS girls soccer team will be giving away free Lakewood soccer t-shirts (while supplies last) at the game on 9/20. This is a home game vs Sheridan at 5pm. Come out an support our Lady Lancers!
We need 140 glass baby food jars for an experiment later this year in sixth grade science. The larger size will work best; but the medium size will also work. (The mini size is too small.) Lids are optional. If you can donate glass jars it will be greatly appreciated. Washed jars can be dropped off at the office with a note for 6th grade science before or after school. Thank you!
Girls Who Code is beginning on Monday afternoons, every other week. The first two meetings are 9/16 and 9/30. See the announcement slide below!
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!
