LaMoure Public School

Mrs. Carlson and the 4th Grade had a wonderful time in the Community presenting the North Dakota Rough Rider Awards Winners Push Button Museum. The award recognizes North Dakotans who have been influenced by this state in achieving national recognition in their fields of endeavor, thereby reflecting credit and honor upon North Dakota and its citizens. I will have two posts to have all of the student photos. The link I have has several photos with various members stopping in. https://photos.app.goo.gl/zBAB5nkGBx7KJUQV9

Chrissy has gone on an adventure in our community. Tell us where she visited and win and prize. A couple of things: 1. DO NOT look for her; she is no longer there. 2. DO NOT reply to this post if you know where she is. Tell a forensic science student where she is. 3. The first 15 STUDENTS who figure out where she visited will have their name put in a drawing to win a prize!

Thank you Mrs. Holen and the second graders for coming and teaching us about penguins today!

Kindergarten enjoyed the story, "Mrs. Morgan's Lawn" read by the 4th grade. Then, a couple 4th grade boys read and showed the story that one of the boys wrote with the title, "If I Won the Lottery." #ReadersAreLeaders

Teacher Spotlight: High School Science Teacher: Ms. Dawn Schmitt Ms. Schmitt’s first year teaching was 7th grade science at a middle school in Dallas, TX; she also coached 7th grade football, 6th grade girls basketball, and softball. Her second year teaching was high school science in Waco, TX for ½ the year and a career education teacher in Mission, SD for the rest of the year. She taught two years in Montpelier, ND, after that; she was also the junior high and assistant varsity girls basketball coach and the junior varsity and assistant varsity boys basketball coach for Litchville-Marion-Montpelier. Her next job was in Lincoln, NE, where she taught high school science six years and was the assistant girls varsity basketball coach. She currently is in her 11th year of teaching science for grades 9-12 in LaMoure. Her parents are retired and live in Dickey, ND. Her older sister, Tammy, lives and teaches in Idaho. My older brother, Dean, lives in Elk River. Her stepbrother, Todd, lives near Dickinson; he is a mail carrier. Her stepsister, Lori, lives in Mobridge, SD, where she works for the local newspaper. Her younger sister, Dava, and her family live in Dickey where she owns the bar and runs the Farmers’ Café. Her younger brothers, Dale and Drew, also live in Dickey. Dale is a mechanic, and Drew is the shop foreman at RTS Shearing. She has two dogs, Dak and Emmit. She got her BA in biology, sociology, and natural sciences with a minor in psychology from Westmar University in LeMars, IA (It is the ice cream capital of the world because Wells Blue Bunny ice cream is made there!) She got my secondary teaching certification from Valley City State University. She also has a masters degree in forensic science from Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln, NE. Outside of school, she is working to become an EMT with the LaMoure Ambulance Service. She works at volleyball and basketball games at the school, and volunteers locally.

You can always choose to spread joy or be happy in call circumstances. We have never seen your cape or mask, but we see your superpowers every day! Thanks for being a super teacher!
