LMS Updates

Linden Middle School staff and students have done a wonderful job kicking off the new school year. Staff have reviewed the SOAR Expectations: Staying Safe, Offering Kindness, Acting Responsibly, and Remembering Respect. As we settle into our new routines, we ask that students are not dropped off until 7:15 am. Students will be allowed in the building at 7:20 am and released to go to their lockers at 7:25 am. Students are released to go to their lockers at 2:31 pm. Parents please be patient if you are picking up your student from school. 7th & 8th grade students are expected to be picked up at the main entrance in the front loop. 6th grade students are expected to be picked up at the west entrance, and line up parallel to create a pick-up line. To ensure that all students are safe, we do not permit students to walk to the parking lots to get picked up from school.

Student Handbook Reminders

Tardies are being monitored. Once a student accumulates 5 tardies in an hour, they will serve a detention for that hour. Also, personal devices including phones, and earbuds/head phones must be stored in their lockers at all times. LMS will have a hall monitor, Mrs. Krawiec, who will be starting on September 6th to help guide students during unstructured times.
