The World is Yours: Turning Obstacles Into Opportunities

We hope you had a restful Thanksgiving Break. Sometimes the 4 days goes too fast and for others it takes forever. Our staff is excited about returning to LMS and continuing to turn obstacles into opportunities.

Last week, even though it was only 3 days, we had a lot of activities. We had a very successful Spirit Week (see pictures below). Our PBSIS team treated the students to slices of pie during lunch. There were several teachers who did gratitude lessons with kids to tie in one of our focus points of the year with the Thanksgiving holiday. Dr. Cook mailed out about 160 letters to LMS students who were selected by the staff. We hope to send out more near the Winter Break. Keep making an impact on our staff and you will be recognized!

Get your yearbook!!  Order your yearbook!!  Yearbook pre-orders are now being taken in Mrs. Sooy's room, M133.  The cost is $20 if you order in November or December and $25 after that.  Bring cash or check to Millville Board of Education to Mrs. Sooy in M133.  Don't miss out!!

Don't forget to eshare your photos for the yearbook.  Directions were handed out in homeroom, and they are on posters in the hallways.  Mrs. Sooy wants your pictures with friends, with teachers, with teammates.  She wants your selfies, your snapchat filters, your black and whites.  So upload, upload, upload using the code Lakeside18.

Thank you and today our joke of the week is about potatoes…I just don’t know where to starch. Have a great week!
