Dear LCMS Panther Families,
Welcome to Lawton Chiles Middle School! We are a collaborative environment embracing diversity and supporting the local community, focused on developing students to be productive lifelong learners able to compete on a global scale through self-directed learning, critical thinking, creative expression, and inquiry-based study.
What does that mean? That means that we want our students to interact with the content in a way that will help them to focus on problem-solving and collaboration. We aim to provide them with real-world experiences that can help them develop a passion that they can hopefully one day turn into their life's purpose.
I invite you to follow us on our social media platforms for the most up-to-date information. Please find us on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram @ChilesMiddle
Please check out the Parent's Page to see how you can get involved through PTSA, SAC, or Dividends. There are opportunities to participate in school activities that work with most work schedules. We appreciate your continued support of our school and look forward to a fantastic year.
I look forward to making this the best middle school experience for our Panthers.
Sincerely,
Dr. Melissa A. Laudani
Principal
