Reading is Fundamental
Put down the phone....pick up a book!
We ask that you please encourage your child to read at home! Not only is reading a great hobby, it helps children to become better learners and helps them focus. It is the single, greatest way your child can help him or herself. Plus, more and more, reading is becoming an expectation for our English classes.

Title I End of Year Feedback Survey
Hello LCMS families,
Our Thought Exchange survey is now open for Title I feedback. The survey will remain available until April 25 within my weekly announcements as well as within the announcements in the news section of the website.
6th Grade Art
Students in Mrs. Schenfelt’s sixth-grade art classes have recently completed their printmaking unit. Throughout this unit, they explored various concepts, including symbolism, marketing, color theory, and the art of carving. Each student designed a personal logo that incorporates an image representing their interests along with their initials.
Using a material known as softcut, they carved out reusable print plates. The students honed their printmaking skills by painting a watercolor background, applying their understanding of color theory, and subsequently printing their logos in a cohesive design.
Feel free to ask any sixth grader about what “chatter” means and how they learned to prevent it during their printmaking activities!
JV Basketball Recap
The JV Log College Middle School basketball team wrapped up their season with an impressive 5-2 record, capped off by a five-game winning streak. After facing a few early challenges, the team found its stride and finished strong, demonstrating excellent teamwork, resilience, and skill on the court. Each game saw the players growing more cohesive, executing plays with precision, and showing mental toughness in close situations. The team’s ability to stay focused and consistent was key to their success as they finished the season on a high note.
The players were the true driving force behind the team’s success, with each athlete stepping up to contribute in big ways. From standout performances to clutch plays in critical moments, the kids showed a tremendous amount of growth over the course of the season. Whether it was a breakout game from a new player or a veteran leading by example, every member of the team played an essential role. As the season concluded, the Log College JV team could be proud of their hard work, knowing they finished strong and built great chemistry that will carry over to future seasons.
Throughout the season, the team also faced hostile environments, including tough away games in loud, intimidating gyms. Despite the pressure, the players remained unfazed, showing poise and maturity beyond their years. They learned to block out distractions, communicate effectively on the court, and rely on each other for support. In several tight games, the team thrived in the face of adversity, never allowing the hostile atmosphere to shake their confidence. Their ability to stay calm and execute under these conditions was a testament to their mental toughness and determination.
