LMS Friends,
The 2021-2022 school year has come to an end. We celebrated our retirees and we celebrated our end to the year together.
Our teachers have now finished up cleaning their rooms and the custodial staff has begun the huge job of getting ready for the summer program.
LMS has gone to quiet mode as it often does in the summer. If for some reason, you still have a chromebook or library book at home please bring it back to our vestibule.
It has been an absolute pleasure to serve the students and families of Lebanon in the role of Principal of LMS for the last five years.
I wish LMS and all of you a great summer and a great start to the 2022-2023 school year.
Later,
John P. D'Entremont, Principal
Chromebooks
If you still have a chromebook or a charging cable, you could drop that off in our vestibule on the shelves. We greatly appreciate getting any technology back.
Moving?
Preliminary Placements
If you have questions about placement or student schedules for next year, please call LMS after August 1st for the new administration.

LMS PRIDE Awards
The LMS Pride awards are a precursor to the LMS Core Values Awards that are given to 8th grade students who embody our school’s core values. For each of our LMS PRIDE core values, we recognize 5th, 6th, and 7th graders based on recommendations by their teachers. These students are demonstrating what we are striving to teach, develop, and model at LMS with each core value.
