Sixth Grade Camp Meeting:  
Please plan to attend an informational meeting about 6th grade camp on Tuesday, April 18 at 7:00 p.m. in the gym at the Fifth Grade Center.  While this camp experience is several months away, it is an opportunity for you to hear about the activities students will be doing, and the opportunities this program presents.  During September, every student will get to spend three days and two nights at Camp Mihaska in Bourbon, MO.  Please plan to attend this informational meeting to learn more about this long-standing tradition and fantastic experience your child will have.  Students are welcome to attend, but it is not necessary as they will hear more about this when they come to LMS.

MAP Testing:
We will start testing on Monday.  Please make sure your child gets a good night sleep and gets to school on time.  Also please check to make sure they have a pair of inexpensive earbuds or headphones at school.  Over the year, many students have taken them home or they have been broken.  Students will need them for a listening portion of the test.
