As we celebrate the accomplishments of the Class of 2026 and look ahead to graduation and summer, we want to thank you for your partnership throughout the school year. It's been a year full of learning adventures and together we helped our students to find success and growth this year.

Prom was a wonderful evening, with students looking their best, enjoying one another's company, and filling the dance floor with energy and enthusiasm. In the weeks since, PA halls have been filled with positive senior spirit as students participate in traditions, wrap up classes, and prepare for graduation. It has been a privilege to witness this special time in their lives.

As we enjoy these final weeks together, we encourage families to continue having open conversations about responsible choices, supervision, transportation plans, and the risks associated with alcohol and other substances. Clear expectations and ongoing communication can help ensure that celebrations remain positive, safe, and memorable for all the right reasons.

Our goal is for every student to begin the summer healthy, safe, and proud of the choices they make. Together, we can help create lasting memories centered on achievement, connection, and responsible celebration. Please encourage your children to stay active, read books, and do something this summer. Enjoy!

9-11th Grade: The last day for student Assessments for 9-11th graders is June 15th. This final week of classes/exam matters and is required for all 9-11th grade. Students are expected to be here all the way to the finish line. June 16th is a Recovery/Make up Day for students who need this support.

• There will be more information in coming weeks about summer recovery and credit opportunities. If you are curious now, reach out to your student’s guidance counselor.

Seniors: The last day for classes is Friday, June 5th. You are expected to be at school for classes and exams up to that point. The following week is loaded with mandatory seniors activities, please plan accordingly.

The annual Torch Run made its' way by school last Friday.

Unbound is currently looking for high school students interested in working with the program during the next school year. Students who are interested should reach out before the end of the school year, if possible, so we can discuss availability, class schedules, and areas of interest for next year.

This is a great opportunity for students interested in working with children, gaining leadership experience, and being involved in the school community.

Please contact Amy Thompson, Unbound Director - amy.thompson@lamoillesouth.org for more information or to express interest.

Thank you!

Last Tuesday several PA classes were treated to four great PoG presentations from outgoing seniors. They were very diverse, personal, inspiring, and uplifting. It was truly enjoyable and rewarding to hear these students talk about their growth, who helped them, how they got to where they are, and how they connected all the leafs on the Portrait of a Graduate to their past, present and future. Cassie Gonyea returned the following day when she presented to the entire school at our final Community meeting. Stay tuned for expanded presentations and opportunities next year.

Sports Writing began celebrating graduating seniors when the class of 2020 lost its spring sports season. We continued the tradition in 2021 but left a gap of several years when the class was not offered in the spring. This year’s class is happy to celebrate our graduating athletes of 2026.

It's an original resource and REFERRAL tool for basic needs like housing, food, utilities, and transportation. The emphasis is on referrals, because not only can you find information about hundreds of organizations on the side, you can also refer yourself or others and make a direct connection with those organizations.

The site is free to use and has information about local (e.g. neighborhood food shelf), state (e.g. Department of Health), and ational (e.g. Veterans Affairs) resources. It can also be translated into over 100 different languages.
