Lamar had another fantastic week!  Our “Students of the Week” for the first week of school are:  6^th grade: LaNija Bryant and Sam Little, 7^th Grade: Mikayla Craig and Deandre Blunson, 8^th Grade: Darby Voigt and Edgar Medrano-Lamar Bearcats ROCK!

 

Ms. Hawes ESL students sent their “Face into Space” through the NASA website. Students could choose either the November 1^st or February 22^nd shuttle mission.

Their names will be listed with other students’ and be aboard the shuttle when it launches into space. After those dates, the students will be able to print out a certificate acknowledging they were “sent into space”.

 

Ms. Palmer’s Stars of the Week are Isiah Baggett and Charles Collins.  Both students were caught being kind and compassionate to another student.

A big thanks to all the parents that signed their children up for the ACE program (Afterschool Centers on Education)  at Lamar Middle School. The first day of ACE is September 7, 2010. The buses will leave the school at 5:30 p.m. Monday – Thursday. There will be no bus services on Fridays, so parents will have to provide transportation. I am looking forward to a GREAT Afterschool Program. From your Lamar ACE coordinator, Martha Frederick.
