    LMS Week At A Glance

    Hello Parents of LMS Students,

    It’s hard to believe that there are only 7 days of school left! In addition to wrapping up our learning, we have a few things coming in the next several days that we hopefully allow for fun, lasting memories. On Tuesday, 7th graders will enjoy outside activities like kickball, volleyball, capture the flag, yard games and face painting. Our 8th graders will walk to Amos Herr and enjoy a fun day with their teams with games of their choice, arts and crafts, and shaved ice. It’s been such a great year and we look forward to these last few days.

    Hello Parents of LMS Students,

    We’re excited to welcome a special guest on Monday, Stephen Weiner, an author and child of Holocaust survivor Bella Flora. He will be hosting a presentation for our students. In his talk, students will learn about his mother's experience being a hidden child in Belgium during World War 2 as well as how this experience impacted his family today. This talk will include excerpts from her letters to her family while in hiding. Dr. Weiner currently lives in the Philadelphia area and works closely with the Holocaust Awareness Museum and Education Center in Elkins Park.

  • 8th Grade Field Day

    Posted by Clint Willman on 5/13/2025 4:45:00 PM

    Good afternoon,

    The following is information is for the parents of  8th graders. You should have received the following flyer at home from your student this week:

     

    Dear Parents and Guardians,

    This is to inform you that the 8th grade will be having a field day at A. Herr Park on Friday, May 16th. The rain date for this activity is Friday, May 30th. Please be sure that students have their iPads and class materials at school on Friday (5/16) if the rain date is in effect. This will be communicated if needed on Schoology on Thursday (5/15) evening.

     

    On Friday, the students will be walking, supervised by police escort and staff, to A. Herr Park with their teams. They will be playing organized games such as kickball, volleyball, soccer, basketball and more. Additionally, there will be stations that include arts and crafts, board games, free shaved ice, popcorn, and a chance to be a SUMO WRESTLER (waiver at the bottom must be signed and returned by 5/14 to participate).

     

    The students will be eating a pre-ordered cafeteria lunch or a packed lunch from home. Any student bringing a packed lunch should pack items that do not need to be refrigerated. Filled water bottles are encouraged, and there will be water coolers available to the students throughout the day. Students should bring sunscreen and dress appropriately for a day of activity; sneakers are recommended. School appropriate dress is required, and all school behavior rules will apply. Students may also want to bring a beach towel to sit on for some of the station activities and even a book to read. Students with significant discipline will not be permitted to attend. Students will be informed if this situation applies to them. This is sure to be an enjoyable day for all students!

     

    *If you do not want your child to participate in this day, please email Mr. Eli Cox, principal, by Thursday, May 15th: eli_cox@hempfieldsd.org.

     

    We look forward to a fun day,

    The 8th grade teachers of Landisville Middle School

    —-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Waiver to participate in Sumo Wrestling:

    I give permission for my child ________________________________________ to participate in the Sumo Wrestling activity at A. Herr Park. I attest that my child does not have any medical

    issues that would lead to injury or illness due to participation.
