Hello LMS Families!

We had a very short week but still managed to squeeze in plenty of instruction and learning.  Parent conferences happen on November 29 and we'll send an email link on Monday.  The format has changed this year to a single-day format with times from 8am-2:15pm.  There are no evening conferences.  I'll send a more detailed email this weekend.

Thank you to all of our veterans and I hope you have a meaningful day tomorrow.  Enjoy the weekend!

Hello LMS Families,

We survived the candy crush of post-halloween treats, and now we're getting ready for the holiday season.  Our pumpkin contest winners are:

6th Grade: Ms. Durkin's Advisory

7th Grade: Ms. Tompkins Advisory

8th Grade: Ms. Morgan's Advisory

Overall Winner: Ms. Pangington's Advisory

All the pumkins were a sight to see!

There is no school on Tuesday (Nov 7) and Friday (Nov 10) next week.  Enjoy the weekend!

Hello LMS Families!

Our annual pumpkin decorating contest is in full swing and the votes are being cast.  The students did incredible work this year, please click HERE to check out the awesomeness!  

We are adopting a digital hall pass system next week and I will send an email on Monday to explain the changes.  We will meet with students on Wednesday and Thursday to get them set up for the shift--I think it will be a great benefit to our students and staff!

I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy the last warm days until spring.

Hello LMS Families,

We are halfway through our first term and the year seems to be going faster than most.  Mid-term grades are now available on Aspen if you would like to see your child's progress thus far.  We also finished MAP testing this week so we should have smooth sailing ahead.  

The Grade 7/8 dance is next Friday, October 27 from 5:30 to 7:30pm and is Halloween-themed.  The cost is $5 and there will be concessions available.

Have a great weekend!

Hello LMS Families!

Earlier this week, the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) recognized Littleton Middle School as one of the top 66 schools in the entire state for high achievement and strong growth.  With more than 1,700 schools in Massachusetts, it's quite an honor!  Thank you to our teachers, staff, students and families for making this possible--this was truly a community effort!

I hope you all enjoy the long weekend, see you on Tuesday!

Hello LMS Families!

We had a great week at LMS, the first full week of the year!  With Back-to-School Night, an early release day and Picture Day, we maintained our momentum and look forward to another great week.  Thank you to all the families who attended our event Monday night, and a special thanks to our staff for their wonderful work and driving home to other towns in torrents of rain!

Have a great weekend,

Jason

Hello LMS Families!

We finished our first (almost) full week of school and I could not be happier with our start to the year.  Students have learned the schedules, routines are forming, and everyone seems to be in a great place to keep this momentum going.  

We have a busy week next week: Back-to-School Night on Monday from 6-8pm and Photo Day on Thursday morning.

Please enjoy the weekend and see you soon!

Jason

Hello LMS Families!

What a wonderful first week of school!  Our students and staff seemed very happy to be here, we managed the new schedule and the typical distractions we expect to see in the first few days, and now it's a long holiday weekend.

Making a successful first week requires the effort of families, students, teachers, teaching assistants, nurses, custodians, clinical staff, office staff and many more--thank you all for helping us have the best first week in quite a while!

Please let me know if you need anything,

Jason
