What do elementary students need to wear for outside recess?
Snow Boots:
ALL students in preschool through fifth grade need to wear boots during recess. Boots need to be worn even if there is no snow on the blacktop and in the play equipment areas because of the wet/muddy conditions that still exist. If a student forgets his/her boots, he/she will need to stand by one of the doors or walk on the north sidewalk.
Snow Pants:
Students in preschool through first grade always need to wear snow pants at recess.
Students in second through fifth grade need to wear snow pants if there is snow on the blacktop and play equipment areas. If there is no snow on the blacktop and play equipment areas, students will need to wear snow pants and boots if they choose to go out and play on the field.

Inside or Outside Recess?
Recess is outside unless…
It is storming, raining, or extremely wet
The “real feel” temperature is below zero based on KIMT
*60 degrees and above: student choice
*50-59 degrees: long sleeves
*33-49 degrees: coats
*1-32 degrees: coats, hats, gloves (snow pants and boots once it has snowed)
*0 degrees: inside

Madde Douglas. I’m sure you & Ian get these notices…

The amazing Lisa Rawls visited 3rd grade and talked about Native Americans.These students absolutely loved being able to look at and learn about artifacts such as buffalo hide, skulls, deer hide, arrows, birch bark, and more. They were able to further their learning based around their Social Studies curriculum about the first settlers and who were here on this land first when Christopher Columbus discovered it. 💡🌿☀️

A few things she touched on were how the circle was so important to the Native Americans, the way they used every single thing from the animal when they hunted it, and the roles of the men and women of the tribe.

God bless them! Very kind of them. They are making a difference in the day those kids have.

Love those Greeters ♥️

What a nice way to start off your day!♥️

💟KINDNESS WEEK💟

Last week, in honor of World Kindness Day (11/13/24), Middle School Student Council spread kindness throughout the school.
On Monday, they greeted students with cheers and well wishes. Tuesday, they decorated the hallways and mirrors with kind messages. Next, they planned a group activity for the entire middle school that challenged them to think about all of the ways we can show kindness to our school in a "Family Feud" style game (think fast money round). Thursday was take a kind note and leave a kind note for another, and on Friday, we "treated" ourselves and others with kindness goodie bags.

🌱Stay tuned for more ways to "Plant Kindness & Sprout Change" with the Lake Mills Middle School 🌱

Welcome to our school!

The public school system has been an important part of the Lake Mills, Scarville, and Joice communities from their beginnings. The Lake Mills Community School is one campus that houses the elementary, middle, and high school. The district prides itself in providing students with exciting learning opportunities that expand their connection to others locally and across the nation. Students at Lake Mills Community School benefit from small class sizes, one-to-one access to technology, and faculty who are focused on growth. We are so excited to offer our communities a school where our collective effort focuses on teaching and learning for all.
