Last week we avoided the blizzard and we are on target to have our last day of school on Friday, June 16th. We are planning our 8th grade Step Up for Thursday, June 15 at 7:00 PM in the Auditorium. More information will be forthcoming.
Also last week the students earned another Pajama Day through the PBSIS committee. In addition to wearing pajamas, students and teachers were able to play board games and eat bagels and cream cheese while hanging in the cafeteria. It literally pays to be safe, responsible, respectful and a good learner at LMS!
On Friday the 6th graders earned a reward for their behavior. As a follow up to the Bee Assembly last month, Mr. Godfrey and the 6th grade teachers cleared out 3 periods so the students could watch the Bee Movie. Once again, the kids were amazingly well behaved and enjoyed the time! Great job 6th grade!
Pi Day - 3.14.17

| Thank you Mr. Fien for all of the Pi Day Activities |
This year we had so many activities around the school celebrating Pi Day. Teachers did all types of activities to show math in the real world. It was great opportunity to celebrate the math program at LMS.
"We had a great turn out for all of our Pi activities. First, the three runner ups for the Pi memorization were:
Stacey Taylor- 8th Grade-memorized 46 digits
Kevin Sheppard 7th Grade- memorized 66 digits
Leanna Jones 8th Grade- memorized 67 digits
Gabby Akiatan 7th Grade- memorized 111 digits
The winner of the contest is Tyler Longbaugh, 8th grade, who memorized a pie-tacular 116 digits.
The three runner ups for the Happy Pi Day holiday card are:
Bowie Lin
Breah Johnson
Heaven Capece
The winner of the contest was Shannon Peterson. A copy of Shannon's card was distributed to all teachers. Thank you Shannon!
Thank you to all the vice principals and their secretaries who participated in the Pie in the Face. Thank you to all teachers and students who helped make Pi day special by helping out with the Pi chain and working with the students during their lunches or preps during the Pi memorization. We were able to loop 6,700 loops on our chain! Way to go.
Thank you to Mr. Fien, Ms. DiMattia, Ms. Moratelli, Mrs. Roche, Mrs. Rauch, Mr. Perry for helping out behind the scenes to make Pi Day special!
