8th grade math students reviewed properties of exponent in an Amazing Race style competition. Students were put into teams and had to complete math tasks in order to move forward in the competition. Along the way students were met with speed bumps, detours, and roadblocks they had to overcome before continuing on in the race. Teamwork and math skills powered students forward as they tackled each challenge to reach the finish line!

Life at LMS!
Over the past few days, we’ve celebrated our students’ hard work with ice cream and snowcone incentives for AR and positive behavior. With the beautiful weather, some of our classes have taken the opportunity to enjoy a good book outside.

LMS G.O.A.T. Award
The LMS G.O.A.T. Award was presented to Mrs. Beth Ann Davis by the previous G.O.A.T.s, Mr. Tipton and Mrs. Bryant. Here is what they had to say:
"Mrs. Davis is a superhero counselor for LMS. She is kind, compassionate, and serves as the main source of continuity for students amidst changes and challenges both inside and outside of school. Mrs. Davis also provides a listening ear not only to students but to staff as well, in times of need. Her ability to find ways to reach all of our students—from those who need gentle nudges and support to those requiring one-on-one guidance—is truly remarkable. Mrs. Davis's dedication and deep understanding of our students make her an invaluable part of the Liberty Middle School community."
Congratulations, Mrs. Davis! Thank you for all you do! 🎉 #TheLMSWay

It's Teacher Proud Tuesday!
This month, we’re celebrating Ms. Kelsey Karr!
Ms. Karr began her teaching journey at Mountain View Elementary five years ago as a 3rd grade teacher, and she’s been making a difference ever since. She loves teaching at MVE because of the unwavering support from administration and the joy of working alongside her best friend!
Her favorite part of teaching? Watching students grow—not just academically, but into the individuals they were meant to be. Her love for her students and her passion for teaching shine through every day!
Thank you, Ms. Karr, for bringing so much joy to students at MVE!
In 7th grade Social Studies with Ms. Daniels, students engaged in a creative and informative project titled "Produce the News." They designed their own one-page newspapers, selecting from topics such as Europe’s First People, Farming, and The Bronze Age. Using their geography books, they crafted news-style articles as if reporting on these historical events in real time. Students incorporated key vocabulary, provided detailed explanations, and included visuals to enhance their storytelling. This hands-on activity encouraged exploration, critical thinking, and creativity while reinforcing their understanding of European history. #TheLMSWay

Shining the spotlight on Mrs. Moore for going above and beyond for her students! 🌟 Not only is she rocking it in her regular classes, but she has also stepped up to lead and inspire in her Life Skills class. Her students have been busy learning essential skills and put their baking talents to the test! 👩🍳🍞
