Our students are caring and compassionate and some go above and beyond to show it! Following the tragic death of Detective Ben Campbell in early April , 7th grade student Emma Sirois encouraged the students at LMS to send cards of encouragement and sympathy to the Maine State Police Force. Pictured below is Emma presenting cards to Lt. Hashey.
8th graders will take the Science MEA tomorrow and Wednesday. Please try to limit dismissals during the morning on those days.
