Dear Middle School Families,

What a busy and exciting week in Middle School!

Our 8th graders began their High School visits this week, and it has been wonderful hearing about their experiences. Students have enjoyed exploring new opportunities, from American Sign Language and additional art offerings to learning more about College Credit Plus. These visits are a great opportunity for our students to get a firsthand look at the next step in their Lawrence journey!

On Thursday, we held our first CCIS Social at Hathaway Brown School, giving students an opportunity to connect with peers from other schools. On Friday, we welcomed our 6th graders from the Lower Campus for a day of exploring Middle School, connecting with our students, and joining us for a great rally. It was a fun day for everyone!

Looking Ahead

There is plenty happening this week!

• Band: Band has practice on Monday.

• 8th Grade High School Visits: Visits will continue throughout the week, and students will receive their high school schedules on Monday.

• E-Sports: Game on Tuesday!

• Middle School Play: Practices are ongoing as students continue preparing for their performance.

• Varsity Basketball: The team has a scrimmage on Thursday.

Thanksgiving Break Reminder

As you begin making your Thanksgiving plans, please remember to contact the front office if your family will be extending the break and your student will be absent on additional school days.

Have a wonderful week, and as always, thank you for being part of our Middle School community!

With Lion Pride,

Douglas Emancipator

Director of Middle School
