Principal's Message
Impact Aid Forms: Please remember to return your child’s Impact Aid form as soon as possible. These forms are important because they help our district secure federal funding that supports our schools and students. Every completed form makes a difference, and your participation helps ensure that Ledyard Public Schools receives the funding it is eligible for. If you have not yet returned your form, please do so at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your time, cooperation, and continued support of Ledyard Middle School! The goal is 100% return rate.
Progress Reports and Grades: With the midpoint of the first quarter this past week, I encourage families to check PowerSchool regularly to monitor grades, assignments, and missing work. PowerSchool is the location for student grades at LMS. Progress reports are simply a moment in time during the grading process and LMS does not mail copies home. Report Cards are not mailed either- as students receive a hard copy following the end of each marking period (and posted on PowerSchool as well). This act of monitoring is especially important for our sixth-grade families who are new to middle school’s numerical and percentage-based grading system. Missing assignments recorded as zeros can have a significant impact on a student’s overall grade, so staying on top of assignments is essential. Progress reports are a great opportunity to celebrate successes and address areas for growth. If you have questions about a grade or assignment, please reach out directly to the classroom teacher. We appreciate your partnership in supporting your child’s success!
