Mr. Gerald Paugh, who has worked for Lewis County Schools for 26 years, is the new Transportation Supervisor. He has enjoyed watching the children grow and being a small part of their lives. Mr. Paugh hopes that in some way he has made a positive influence that may have encouraged the students to dream and succeed in life
As supervisor, his goal is to finish his career trying to leave the transportation department in a better place by building relationships between the wonderful bus operators and administrators by trying to set a good example that will hopefully inspire all bus drivers to share the same compassion for the children as he has.

Today we kicked off our annual fundraiser while safely sitting arm lengths apart. Students did an amazing job and are pretty excited about the prizes. We are back in the cookie dough selling business. There is also an online catalog component that people can use to purchase/pay online and have it shipped directly to their door.
8th grade math is an amazing place to be.

We would like to thank Keith Talbot for acquiring and installing brand new American flags at RLBMS today. What a great way to remember those who have sacrificed everything on this Patriots Day.
Parents, your student should have brought home their WVGSA test results home with them yesterday, Friday, September 10th. Please as them about them. The results are accompanied with information sheets on how to understand the results.
We will be using these results along with some diagnostic testing that your students have been completing to customize skills classes to aid our students in achieving their academic potential.
LC Strong and Patriot Proud.
The 5th Grade Team decided to use a community member today to help our students learn more about the events of 9/11. Keith Talbert , the Deputy Chief of the Weston Fire Department and Assistant Director Lewis/Gilmer E-911/ Assistant Director of Lewis County Office of Emergency Management, presented on TEAMS to our students. Since our students were not alive to experience this and it’s history to many of them, we wanted to use our resources to help them make connections to the day. Our social studies classes spent last week analyzing before and after pictures of NYC, so this was a great way to connect what they learned in the classroom to the real world. We want to give a big shout out to Keith for taking the time to prepare a presentation for our kids and helping them understand the emotions and events that took place that day.
Attention 8th grade students!!!! If you are interested in applying to be on the yearbook staff send Mrs. Willison a message through Schoology or at bwilliso@k12.wv.us letting her know. All messages must be received by Tuesday, September 14.
Lewis County Blueprint Communities is hosting a Fun Run. See Flyers for more information.
