International Walk, Bike, & Roll to School Day - Wednesday, October 8th

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.

Let Me Run held a lively practice with the 3rd–5th grade boys at Morris, made extra special by the seniors from the LMMHS Varsity Boys’ Cross Country team who joined in. The younger boys lit up at the chance to run alongside the older athletes, kicking things off with a mile in small groups to get to know each other. The seniors then led drills that turned into spirited, good-natured competitions, before everyone wrapped up with group stretches and a round of fun facts.

Let Me Run is a national program that combines running with lessons on teamwork, character, and confidence, with each season culminating in a 5K race.

A big thank-you to Coach Al Najimy for helping to make this collaboration possible, and to Ivan, Ben, Jackson, Owen, Connor, and Chase. Your leadership, energy, and sportsmanship made a lasting impression on the younger boys and turned an ordinary practice into a memorable one.

The Kindness Crew had a great visit to the Dr. Sax House!

The field trip included time spent in whole and small groups talking about what kindness looks like in action, considering the resistance to kindness initiatives and how to meet them, brainstorming, and planning projects to kick off their efforts to positively impact school culture and student relationships.

A big "Thank you" to Dr. Sax for hosting!
