Which will pop first? Students in Mrs. Farmer's class tested their hypothesis about how the color of a balloon could affect how fast it pops by using a magnifying glass to focus the rays of the sun. They were quite surprised by the results! It was a popping good time for a Friday! #LiveLearnLandrum

Mr. Millwood's class brought major creativity to their Book Report Presentations! Students showed off their hard work through fantastic slide decks, detailed dioramas, and eye-catching posters.

Keep up the incredible work! 👏✨ #LiveLearnLandrum #RespectExcellenceDetermination

Rain couldn't stop our students! Even though the weather moved things indoors on Wednesday morning, nearly 130 LMS students gathered for See You at the Pole Day. Students lifted up prayers for our school community, local and national leaders, and people around the globe who do not have the freedom to pray openly. Eighth-grader Rylie Bruner led a thoughtful devotion on Matthew 11:28. We want to extend a huge thank-you to Dustin Drake and Hambone from The Well and Pastor Mark Bishop from First Baptist Church of Landrum for attending! #syatp2026 #LiveLearnLandrum
