Happy National School Lunch Week!
This year's theme is "Experience a World of Flavor"
Each day at LMMHS our Food Service has planned locally sourced meals inspired by different cultures.
Yesterday was Chicken Gyro (Kristina made her homemade tzatziki using locally grown cucumbers and dill grown right in the kitchen in our hydroponic system!)
Today was "Make Your Own Asian Inspired Noodle Bowl", complete with a salad bar full of local toppings.
It's no wonder that the cafeteria is setting records for the number of meals served! Yum!

Hall Walking
As we know, some Berkshire days in the fall, winter and spring are cold, rainy or windy (sometimes all three). Hall Walking is an alternative available when the weather does not cooperate.
Please wear rubber sole shoes and sign-in on the sheets provided at the podium in the entryway.
Keep fit by walking at LMMHS; with established walking groups in town; and on our new, beautiful sidewalks on Walker and Housatonic Streets.
(additional information contact Mary Jane Incorvia Mattina: 413-364-2395 or mjimattina@gmail.com)

Today is World Mental Health Day, a global day of awareness first established in 1992 by the World Federation for Mental Health with a goal of bringing awareness to the importance of mental health and reducing the stigma often associated with it.
World Mental Health Day encourages all of us to learn more about mental wellness, recognize the signs of stress or struggle in ourselves and others, and reach out for support when needed.
Did you know that:
- Mental illness affects people of all ages, communities, races and religions
- Depression affects 350 million people worldwide
- Only 10% of people with depression seek out help
- 1 in 4 people will be affected by a mental health or neurological (brain) issue in their lives
- About half of mental disorders begin before people reach age 14
Today is a day to take a moment to check in with ourselves and each other. The smallest acts of care and kindness can make the biggest difference.

October is National Principals’ Month.
Have you thanked a principal today?
“Principals are the locus of control in schools.” They set the tone for everything that happens within our schools. They shape climate, culture, and belonging. They create the conditions where teaching and learning can truly thrive. When principals believe that every student can achieve at high levels, they make that belief contagious. Despite their countless responsibilities, our principals still lead with compassion.
Brenda and Jeremiah, thank you for your vision, your steady leadership, and your daily commitment to keeping our schools safe and making them great places to work and learn. We appreciate all that you do!

This October, we mark National Bullying Prevention Month by committing to safe, supportive learning environments for all.
At LPS, we know that when administrators, educators, and school families set clear expectations that foster a culture of positivity, inclusiveness, and respect, our students thrive.
We're making it a priority to recognize and reward positive social behavior, showing our students every day that kindness does matter.
When staff, students, families, and the community stand united, every child can grow up feeling valued, respected, and safe.
