National Junior Honor Society information

By Anonymous -
Good morning.
Our National Junior Honor Society sponsors asked if I would send out follow up information regarding NJHS for this school year.  This information will also be available during Fall Parent Conferences.
Applications will be sent to qualifying students in January of the students’ 7th grade and 8th grade year.
To qualify for an application, students need:
  • A cumulative GPA of 3.8 or above.
  • Eight or more O’s in citizenship in the first semester of the current school year.
  • No I or U Citizenship grades in the first semester of the current school year.
  • Fifteen (15) hours of community service.  Feel free to investigate community service opportunities yourself, but one resource that can be of help is www.volunteennation.org
  • No assignments to BIC or out of school suspensions during the current school year.
  • Completion of the NJHS Candidate Form, including the Student Activities Form and Honors and Awards form.
After students have completed their NJHS application, there is an additional selection process conducted by the NJHS Faculty Council to determine membership.
For questions, you may email Lisa Granich-Kovarik at lkovarik@ladueschools.net or Kevin Kearns at kkearns@ladueschools.net
Thank you.

TJs Tidbits Greetings LMS Families, Last week was focused in many ways on Character Education. On Monday, Dr. Jahnke joined us after school during our Faculty Meeting and surprised us with cake to celebrate our State School of Character Recognition. We had our State School of Character Banner presented to us by Character Plus representative, Nicole Diehl, on Tuesday in a lovely ceremony that included district and LMS admin, counselors, Character Ed Committee reps, student leaders and members of the LMSPA. At the end of of the ceremony, student volunteers shared what Character Ed. means to them and what they love most about LMS. They wowed us all with their comments and spoke so eloquently sharing strengths and growth areas. One student summed it up perfectly, saying something along the lines of "We are not perfect, as there is no way we could be, but we certainly work hard and continue to get better and better each day…” Our National School of C
