Dear LCMS Panther Families,

Current student registration continues today. 

Current 7th graders will attend a Registration Presentation today, February 3. They will have until February 13 to make their course selections.

Current 6th graders attended a Registration Presentation last Friday, January 27. Their course selection form is due Monday, February 6th to make their course selections. 

The Registration Website is accessible on the homepage of our website or here: https://sites.google.com/myscps.us/lcmsregistration2021/home 

I know that Valentine's Day is coming up.  Please remember that we do not allow drop offs of any kind for students. If your child chooses to bring something to give to a friend, it must be small enough to fit in their backpack. Do not send in large bags of candy or other treats. 

Have a great week!

Dr. Melissa Laudani

Principal, Lawton Chiles MS 

A Note about Dress Code

We have noticed that as the weather gets warmer, the shirts and shorts are getting shorter. Please remind your students that their stomach/midriff and their bottom are to be covered at all times. More information about Dress Code can be found here: http://lcms.scps.k12.fl.us/core/fileparse.php/11303/urlt/Dress-Code.pdf

Thank a Counselor

Send a thank you to your child's counselor for all they do!

Living on My Own

SCPS Community Involvement is excited to be returning to Lawton Chiles Middle School - Seminole County Public Schools!

We'll be bringing "Living on My Own" to selected students at Lawton Chiles Middle School - Seminole County Public Schools on Wed, 2/22 and Thu, 2/23 with our partners UF IFAS Extension Seminole County and the support of business partners, community members, LCMS PTSA, and volunteers like you! This financial literacy program offers students a view into their futures and the financial decisions they will make. We have all the information you will need to support the students in the "Living on My Own City" during the real-life simulation portion of this program. Mr. Borosky's 8th grade Lightbulb students will be participating in this event. 

Volunteers are needed to make this event possible! Consider joining us to share information with the students, to gather strategies to discuss financial literacy with your own students, and to see what happens during the simulation in the "Living on My Own" city!
