After School Activities Quarter 1
Good
afternoon, everyone.
After School Activities for Quarter 1 have
just been posted to the LMS website.
If you do a search for Ladue Middle School
and get the page with a picture of the Cafeteria and administrators, please
click on the “Visit School Website” button above my head.
Once on the school website, click the
“Activities” tab across the top (fourth from left). A drop down menu will then provide you with
choices. Just select “After School
Activities.” You then should be provided
with four options, listed by Quarter. I
hope that “Quarter 1” is displayed in blue. If so, you should then be able to click on
that for a full listing for the dates August 27 through the end of this
quarter.
I
was about to delete the Meet The Teacher Night information sent out previously,
but thought I would keep it in case you haven’t seen it yet. If you have, then ignore everything from this
point on.
Thanks,
Greg

Meet The Teacher Night
This evening is for you, the parents, and
us to do a brief meet and greet and share some general information about your
child’s classes. Due to the limited
timeline for tomorrow evening, more extensive conversations about your child’s
unique needs, abilities and progress are better served either through other
communications or meetings, and/or at Parent Teacher Conferences in late
October.
What follows is a schedule for tomorrow
evening. This flyer should have arrived
at your homes last Friday afternoon through backpack mail.
Plan to arrive early, as parking is limited. Shuttle Service is recommended and provided
from Ladue Chapel (9450 Clayton Road, St. Louis, MO 63124) to the circle drive
from 6:00 – 9:00 pm. Look for a blue
canopy and yellow sign on the south end of the parking lot at Ladue Chapel
indicating the pick-up point. The
drop-off and pick-up location at LMS will be the flagpole in front of the
building.
Your child will be given a copy of their schedule to bring
home on Tuesday, August 20. Please bring
this schedule with you. There will also
be copies of schedules available in the lobby or by the gym when you arrive.
6:30 pm – Welcome from Administration, Counselors, Parent
Association, & Dad’s Club
Parents will report directly to your child’s first period at
6:55pm. See specific grade level
schedules below and refer to your child’s schedule for specific class period
information.

As mentioned, copies of students’
schedules have been distributed to students this afternoon to deliver
home. Please ask them for the schedule
when they arrive home. We will have
extra copies of schedules in both the Welcome Center and the Gym entrance, but
having this in hand will save you some time standing in line. At the conclusion of the parent meeting in
the Gym, we will dismiss you by grade level to begin following your student’s
schedule.
At the risk of being repetitive, parking
on campus is a challenge. I would take
advantage of the shuttle being offered from Ladue Chapel if you can. Please also be aware that we need to keep our
handicapped cutouts open on the Circle Drive.
They will be designated by the green cones. In order for the shuttle buses to exit the
Circle Drive, we will also need to keep a portion of the Conway Road exit free
from parking as well. This area will be
marked with orange cones. If you park in
the back parking lot, or next to the Admin Center, be aware that the doors on
the back of the Gym will be unlocked for you to enter.
I hope that I haven’t forgotten
anything. If so, I will send a follow
up. We look forward to seeing you
tomorrow evening, if you can make it.
Thank
you for your time,
Greg
