March is Here!

Greetings Middle School Families,

Welcome to March! As we transition into spring, it’s a great time to enjoy but stay focused as we continue our goal of growth and learning.

A Few Important Reminders:

• Attendance Matters: Consistent attendance is key to student success. Please help ensure your child is arriving on time and ready to engage in their learning each day.

• Upcoming Events: Be sure to mark your calendars for some exciting events coming up, including Parent/Teacher Conferences March 6th, our LAMS Talent Show March 13th, and Spring Break March 17-20th.

March Focus: Health & Wellness
This month, we’re focusing on the importance of physical and mental well-being. As the weather warms up, we encourage students to stay active, enjoy the outdoors, and take time for self-care. Health plays a crucial role in academic success, so encourage and provide opportunities and activities to help students stay balanced and healthy.

We encourage you to stay connected with school happenings through our communication channels, including the newsletter, push notifications/Sylogist app, and social media.

Here’s to a healthy, active, and productive March!

Sincerely,

Principal, Mike Bread
