Today, LEMS was proud to host a team from SCETV. This crew came to visit our school as part of the TV show In Our Schools. We were chosen to be part of this due to our outstanding test scores and the three consecutive Silver Awards. It is quite an honor to be chosen for this program. Several classes, several students, and programs were highlighted. We are always proud to brag a little about our school. Wefeel that we have a lot to brag about. Before they left, the video crew was very complimentary about our students, parents, programs, and staff. They commented to me that they could see why our students love our school .
Speaking of bragging, this past Friday, we found out that LEMS was named a U-ACT School of Excellence by the Red Robin Corporation for our efforts in Character Education. A special thanks to Ms. Bonita Hunter and Ms. Sylvia Blackwell (our two outstanding Guidance Counselors) for heading that application up. The award includes a banner, a spirit night at our local Red Robin restaurant in Sandhills, and a check for $10,000. Wow!!! That really rocks. I’m proud of our staff and students.
