No conferences are being held in classrooms. Please review the location the day of your conference, in case there is a change. We ask that you be a few minutes early, so that you get the allotted time slot to discuss how we can work together to help your child. If you are unable to make this conference and would like to meet with your child’s teachers, please contact your child’s counselor to set up a better time and way.

When signing up for conferences, please make sure to ONLY sign up for the March 7th time blocks between the hours of 7:00 AM and 3:00 PM.

March 5th will be our next Early Release Day for our students. Learwood will let out at 11:35 AM. If purchasing, student lunch on that day will consist of:

Chips, cheese cup, apple slices, carrots, and chocolate milk

Dear 7th Grade Students and Families,

On our upcoming early release day, students will participate in several important activities to help prepare for next school year.

8th Grade Math Placement Test

Students will take a math placement assessment to support 8th grade course decisions. Placement will be determined using:

• Placement test results

• MAP scores

• Average math test grades

This combination of data will ensure each student is placed in the course that best supports their growth and success.

Course Registration Assembly

Students will attend an assembly to review the course registration process for next year. They will learn about available courses and what to expect as they move into 8th grade.

Washington D.C. Trip Assembly

Immediately following, students will attend a second assembly focused on the Washington D.C. trip scheduled for the fall. During this session, they will:

• Receive detailed trip information

• Learn about an individual fundraising opportunity

Additional information about course registration,and the Washington, D.C. trip and fundraiser will be sent home later this week.

We look forward to helping our students prepare for an exciting 8th grade year ahead.

In February, Mighty Goliath Productions presented its 2026 production of The Addams Family. Mighty Goliath Productions (MGP) has proudly supported the arts in Avon Lake since 1959.

This year, several Learwood students participated in the production. Performing on stage at such a young age takes dedication and courage.

Congratulations to our students—we are incredibly proud of you!

B-WISER is a team-taught, hands-on science experience. Campers stay on campus in a residence hall and participate in laboratory-based classes in state-of-the-art science facilities. Curriculum for the Middle School Camp (grades 7-8) includes biology, chemistry, physics, geology, engineering, and select special topics. Middle school campers also learn about careers in various STEM fields. High School Camp (grades 9-10) classes cover advanced topics such as microbiology, forensics, neuropsychology, astronomy, radiation, botany, and environmental science. High schoolers attend college-readiness seminars as well. Girls advance their skills, make new friends, and increase self-confidence.

Established in 1990, the mission of B-WISER is to encourage young women to pursue their interests in the sciences. This non-profit program is made possible by the Martha Holden Jennings Foundation, the Ardelle and Theresa Glaze Foundation, and other donors. Several financial aid scholarships are available to those who qualify.

B-WISER camp takes place on June 15-20 on The College of Wooster campus in Wooster, Ohio. The registration deadline is April 30, 2026. To register and learn more, please visit https://bwiser.spaces.wooster.edu/ or email BWISERcamp@wooster.edu.
