Getting Ready for Next School Year

Immunizations

NOTICE - Immunizations for incoming 7th graders

All students who will be entering the 7th grade in the 20145-2016 school year will need to obtain vaccinations this summer (if they have not already done so). The State of Texas requires that all students be vaccinated against certain communicable diseases before starting school.  Students that do not meet the 2015-2016 Texas Minimum State Vaccine Requirements will not be able to start the school year OR obtain his or her schedule if immunizations are not up to date.  Please check with your doctor or the school nurse if you have any questions.

The 2015-2016 school year will be here before you know it.

Please contact the LMS office with any questions.  There will also be more information about registration on the LISD website during the summer.

LMS Awards Ceremonies

The Lorena Middle School Awards Ceremonies will be held Wednesday, May 20th in the LMS Gymnasium.  

6th grade @ 8:30

7th grade @ 9:30

8th grade @ 10:30

While we believe that all Lorena Middle School students work hard, the Award Ceremonies are designed to recognize student achievement above and beyond daily expectations.  If your student does not receive individual recognition at the ceremony, it is not because they are not hard workers or great students.

We would also like to thank each of our parents for the support give students everyday and the support shown to Lorena Middle throughout the 2014-2015 school year.
