To recognize National STEM Day, students designed and built buildings out of Legos or Magna Tiles. They used design thinking and learned team work as they put their creativity to the test. We learned to balance the needs of society with the needs of the environment.

November 6-10, 2023, is National School Psychology Week. Lauderdale County Schools is fortunate to have Ms. Maria Leforgee, Ms. Jenny Gaines, and Ms. Olivia McCorkle serving students throughout our district. In their roles as school psychologists, they work closely with students, educators, and families to support the academic achievement, positive behavior, and mental wellness of all students, especially those who struggle with barriers to learning. We appreciate their dedication and service to the students of our community!

Teachers from Lauderdale County Schools’ 21st Century Community Learning Centers (CCLC) and LEAPS before- and after-school programs attended professional development session on Tuesday, October 31. “What First Year Teachers Need to Know”, facilitated by Mr. Texas Culver of UTM- Ripley’s Education Department, provided opportunities to discuss UTM’s Educator Preparation Program (EPP) design for undergraduate students pursuing careers in the field of education. These experienced teachers were able to share about their first year teaching experiences and provide recommendations for curriculum design that would best support these future educators. Many ideas, thoughts, and perspectives were shared with Mr. Culver for consideration during UTM’s EPP curriculum development process to ensure that first year teachers are successful from their first day of school through their careers.
RMS 8th graders wanted to ensure that “veterans know that they are never forgotten and are never alone” this Veteran’s Day. Dorihanna C. and Elijah B. encouraged classmates to write letters and thank you posters for residents of the Tennessee State Veteran’s Home in Humboldt, TN.
As a reminder, Lauderdale County Schools will not be in session on Wednesday, November 1, 2023, due to staff Professional Development.
