National Blue Ribbon recognition

By Anonymous -

Good morning.

I am VERY PLEASED to be able to announce that Ladue Middle School has been named a 2015 National Blue Ribbon School by US Secretary of Education Arne Duncan this morning.  LMS is one of 10 Missouri schools to achieve this recognition.

The National Blue Ribbon Schools Program honors public and private elementary, middle, and high schools where students either achieve very high learning standards or are making notable improvements in closing the achievement gap. 

All recognized schools will be honored at a recognition ceremony on November 9 and 10 in Washington, D.C.

This great honor, coming on the heels of our recognition as a 2014 National School of Character, is a testament to our teachers, support staff, students and parents. 

Thank you, so much, for helping to make LMS a great place to learn and work.

Congratulations to you all,


Greg

Good afternoon.  I hope that your week has gone well so far.   All indications point to MAP testing having gone pretty well for the 6th and 7th graders this week.  Although many hands contribute to the success of school-wide, grade level testing, I would like to share special thanks to the work put in by Associate Principal Dr. Tiffany Taylor-Johnson, Counselor Janey Worthington, Technology Coach Karl Kindt, and Teaching Assistant Katie Rahmoeller.  We should wrap up testing for 8th grade next week, with make up exams to follow.   CONGRATULATIONS and THANKS Congratulations to the LMS Science Olympiad team.  This past Saturday, they took first place at the state finals in Fulton, MO with a commanding lead over the second place team (Pembroke Hill from Kansas City).  Thirty-two of the top teams from the state were present and Ladue took top five in 20 of the 22 events.  The team will be moving on to the national finals at University of W...
