!Lipscomb In The Middle!

Hey  LAMS Fam ! Thank you so much for a wonderful beginning of a brand new year! I would like to encourage you to dig in and hit the ground running! Students benefit from consistent educational experiences so continue "teaching hard" everyday! Remember to ask deeper questions of your students. Students need varying questions so it is perfectly OKAY to plan who gets specific questions. Be laser focussed and target your instruction so that students leave knowing more. Let's give them our very BEST every day! ~Crystal💜 "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him."~Colossians 3:17 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 FACULTY/STAFF DUTY (1/17-1/20) Traffic Greeter- Merritt Awning Supervision- Cain FACULTY/STAFF DUTY (1/23-1/27) Traffic Greeter- Reily Awning Supervision- Reily NIET EVALUATION CYCLE  Second semester classroom observations/walkthro...

Hey  LAMS Fam ! I hope and pray that everyone has had a smooth transition back from Thanksgiving Break! It was a GREAT time to rest and recharge as we are headed towards the halfway mark (can you believe that) of the school year!  Just a reminder that although it can be very tempting to "shift down" and cruise into Christmas break, be cognizant and hold yourself accountable for finishing strong! Keep your standards high and expect no less from your colleagues and students.  ~Crystal💜 "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as unto the Lord, and not unto men;" ~Colossians 3:23 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 FACULTY/STAFF DUTY (11/28-12/2) Traffic Greeter-Wood Awning Supervision-Clay FACULTY/STAFF DUTY (12/5-12/9) Traffic Greeter-Irwin Awning Supervision-Bennett TOMORROW Thank you to those of you who have completed the form that I emailed earlier today regarding your plans for tomorrow.

Hey  LAMS Fam ! WOW! We have been on quite the ride for the last couple of weeks! We successfully completed our accreditation process as well as hosted Grandparents Day! Next up is getting through our "Costume Dress-up Day" as well as our Annual Faculty Pancake Breakfast! We have a lot going on, but there is NO other faculty or staff I would rather work with than each one of you. Thank you for all of the extra energy and good vibes you bring with you to school each day. It means so much to me!😊 "Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing."
