Welcome to LME!

IMG_0908 IMG_0909A particular tradition I find most special each first week of school is our Welcome Party.  Following our Rally this morning, all our new-to-LME friends joined Mrs. Stanley (counselor), Mrs. Bass, and myself for several entertaining rounds of LME Bingo.  The Bingo cards have specific LaRue Miller Elementary faces and places to help everyone become better acquainted with our growing campus.  As we wrapped up the event, Ava shared her thoughts:  “You know, this school really knows how to help others and make them feel great; thanks!”  Thanks, LME learners and leaders for a stellar start to the 2013-2014 school season…STAND UP because everyday is game day at LME!

Note:  EnJOY a safe, fun, relaxing three-day weekend and we look forward to seeing everyone’s smiling face early Tuesday morning!  🙂

Welcome to new Miller friends!

Our new Student Honor Council hosted their first campus event this morning when they welcomed all new Miller friends in first through fifth grades to the Library Media Center.  They introduced themselves, shared cards and treats, and visited with students about things they like and questions they may have about LaRue Miller Elementary.  I had the honor of sharing a special story (Stand Tall, Molly Lou Melon) and talking about my experiences of changing schools three times during my elementary years.  Several clever ideas were shared among our new friends and a great time was had by all!

I especially appreciate the welcoming posters and smart work of our Student Honor Council members, Mrs. Stanley (our caring counselor), Mrs. Bass, and Mrs. Worley who prepared, collected, and created a memorable experience for all!  Welcome, our new LME friends; we’re so pleased to have you join our growing family!  🙂
