This fall in Cope's Botany classes, students learned about different plants, made a layout, and selected appropriate plants to fill in some areas around the school. They worked hard and did a great job!
Landmark works to instill 5 Vital Behaviors that will keep our students on the pathway to success, no matter what they choose to do with their lives. To promote these behaviors, we award Student of the Month accolades to 5 students who have excelled at one or more of these behaviors.
For the month of November those students are the following:
With the implementation of our electronics policy, teachers have had more time for instruction, yes. BUT, just like at other schools, Landmark students do end up with downtime in class every once in a while. The Social Studies department has taken this time for some fun; usually involving games and prizes. These prizes are often in the form of candy. Sometimes, however, students are lucky enough to win a crocheted figurine (amigurumi). Sue and Chelsie make them and the students win them (and love them!).

Recently our Anthropology students learned about how humans use different geographic areas in different ways in order to survive. As a part of that process, they were able to test soil samples for health and fertility. Playing in mud FTW!
One of our Landmark family's favorite traditions is our annual Thanksgiving dinner. Faculty, staff, students all come to spend time together and enjoy a great meal.
Last week, Landmark had its traditional Veteran's Day assembly. The first part of this tradition is to retire the school's flag and raise another. After this, students and teachers headed in to the gym for a presentation honoring Landmark family who have served.

Recently in Carrie's & Carly's English classes, students hung visual displays for the student research projects last mini term. This project asked students to make a bucket list of 20 items, winnow that down to their favorite five, write a project proposal, then complete 5 presentations of their research using correct MLA citation.
