Good afternoon, everyone.  I typically refrain from counting down the days remaining on the school year for as long as possible, since it seems to make the time seem longer (administrators look forward to the upcoming summer as well).  Next Monday will mark 25 days left in the current school year.  Things are ramping up leading up to that day, with multiple concerts, grade level activities, and recognition programs.  In my interactions with students, I try to reinforce the hope that they continue their best efforts through the final day.  Now is not time to coast.  I feel confident that they will continue to devote themselves to their work, while also maintaining positive behaviors that they have exhibited throughout the year. CALENDAR ITEMS Monday, April 21 through Friday, April 25 World Languages Week Wednesday, April 23 Administrative Professionals Day (we could not function without the work of our great LMS Secretaries!)

Good morning, everyone.  I hope you are enjoying this glorious Saturday morning. Since I was out on Friday, I ran in to the office this morning to get my weekly updates out.  When I pulled into the parking lot, I was very pleasantly surprised to see members and leaders of Boy Scout Troop 344 doing some landscaping work around the front of our building.  They informed me that this work is their way of saying ‘thank you’ for LMS hosting their troop meetings in our multipurpose room.  Thank you to Troop 344! On another more somber note, if you have or will drive by our building today and notice our flags at half-staff, this follows an order by the Governor below: “By order of the Governor, all flags of the United States and the flag of Missouri at all State and government offices will be flown at half-staff, on Saturday, April 12, 2014, from sunrise until sunset in honor of Sergeant Timothy Wayne Owens who died during the Fort Hood shootings.” CALE
