Winter Sports Assembly
On Thursday January 11, we held our winter sports assembly. Our boys and girls basketball teams were introduced and a free throw contest involving LMS Staff and students was held. Mrs. Mortensen and the LMS Student Council did an awesome job planning and running the assembly. The band sounded great playing a variety of songs. The cheer and dance teams did an amazing job performing for the student body. We appreciate Coach Thornton and Coach Bowler for their work with the dance and cheer teams and Ms. Bender as the band director. Thank you to all that participated.
Middle School Basketball
Lyon Middle School basketball teams began their season this past week. Both teams went 1-1 on the week, with the girls losing to Gibson MS and beating Molasky MS. The boys beat Gibson MS and lost to Molasky MS. The next home game for both teams will be January 26 vs Swainston Middle School. They will have three games on road this week and next. Good luck to our teams.
