The wide variety of the performers' talents made the Morris Talent Show a smash hit last night!
Kudos to everyone who performed or contributed to making the talent show happen !
Mrs. Codey's and Mrs. Yantovsky's buddy classrooms wrote books and invited their families in today to share their literary creations.
“Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, creeps in this petty pace from day to day...”
— Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5
Bravo! The Morris 5th Grade classes' thespian talents were on display last night as they performed Shakespeare's Macbeth to a packed house and to the audience's delight on the Shakespeare & Company stage.
Congratulations Paige!!

The company that supplied our poster printer (Presentation Systems Inc.) held a school photo contest. Heather McNeice, our LMMHS Business & Computer Applications Teacher, entered LMMHS into the contest and... took first place!
Take a look at the before & after photos of the LMMHS School Store front and you'll see why!
Thank you Ms. McNeice for always going above and beyond!!
Congratulations to Morris School on being recognized with a Bronze level distinction by the Northeast Positive Behavioral Interventions!

What a spectacular science fair last night at Morris!
The student scientists were amazing. Much appreciation for all of the distinguished judges who donated their time (including members of the LMMHS Robotics Teams). What a great evening!
A big THANK YOU to Erica Robbins & Haley Holmes for coordinating such a wonderful event.

Lenox Public Schools celebrates Paraprofessional Appreciation Day!
Paraprofessionals play a valuable and supportive role in our schools. We could not do what we do without them.
Please give it up for our in-house superheroes!
She's gone and done it again!
Our Food Service Director, Shannon Gagliardo, just secured another grant. This time a breakfast grant for the Morris School from the New England Dairy Council.
Morris will receive $1,147 to purchase a smoothie kit and host smoothie taste tests for students.
This grant will help remove some processed foods at breakfast and introduce new items made with fresh ingredients. Director Gagliardo is excited about the introduction of smoothies made with "simple, clean ingredients with minimal added sugar, no food dyes, no additives we can't pronounce..."
The LPS budget for next year includes the addition of a half-time Grant Writer. Director Gagliardo's position will go from half-time to full-time, with half of her day being devoted to grant writing. We anticipate that this position will be revenue positive for the District (meaning that LPS will raise more in grant revenues than it cost to make Director Gagliardo full-time).
