As many of you may know, our school is raising money for our beloved Mr. Lewis, who faced a tragic house fire and lost everything dear to him, including his wife of 35+ years. All money raised from hat days, general donations, and this "Loot for Lewis" event will go straight to Mr. Lewis! Plus, the grade level with the most donations will have 2 student representatives PIE 2 teachers in the face. 🥧 Let's rally together and show Mr. Lewis that LION COMMUNITY PRIDE! 🦁

Congratulations to our Student Spotlight of the Week, Kyleigh Stephens 🌟 Mrs. Deaton said, "Kyleigh encompasses the qualities of everything I would hope my child would have. Her heart is HUGE! She showed compassion, empathy, and kindness during a fundraiser for someone who had experienced a tragedy. Kyleigh sold her family’s product, freeze dried candy, to raise money for a recent fundraiser. When speaking with her dad, I was told it was completely her idea and she did all of the work. She sold nearly $400 worth of candy and gave 100% of the proceeds to the fundraiser. When told how amazing her generosity was, Kyleigh humbly said thank you and acted like it was just the right thing to do. Watching her determination and excitement for the good she was doing made my heart swell. I’m so grateful for students like Kyleigh, and hope that her example has shown others a difference that one person can make in our community and world!"

At the beginning of last month, our students went head to head in a Penny War! 💰Overall, 7th grade took the W 👏 Way to go, GMS, on raising OVER $400 for Make-A-Wish!
Before Spring Break, this select group of 8th graders tackled a BIG experiment! Under Mr. Leach's guidance, these young scientists took on a high-school-level microbiology unit that took over a week to complete. Students used the organism, escherichia coli, and watched it maintain or even grow with certain variables introduced. 🧪
A HUGE THANK YOU to Mr. Leach. He saw a want in these students to continue and push their knowledge, therefore he took his prep periods to do this week-long process. We have the BEST educators! 🧡
Students in Mrs. Youngblood’s KeyCode classes took apart old desktops and Chromebooks to help them visually understand how the computer works. They loved breaking them apart and fought over whose turn it was! 💻
