The Burneson Blast will not be sent on December 25 or January 1. It will resume on January 8, 2018. Enjoy the holiday season!

As the days wind down before Christmas break, we continue to focus on excellent instruction, every day, for every student. We are enjoying our musical activities, and wrapping up building service projects alluded to in last week's report. As a relative newcomer to LBMS, I am so impressed at how well (and often) teachers collaborate on behalf of their students, how well thought-out and well-implemented their lessons are, and how staff work together to help any students who are struggling on an academic or personal level.
Monday and Tuesday will be a blend of typical instructional activities (mostly) plus some all-school and/or team based holiday or recognition programs. The PTA will sponsor the annual LBMS coffeehouse activity on Tuesday.
Wishing everyone an enjoyable and safe holiday season.
