Mrs. Wolke and Ms. Zajac's 7th Grade Science Classes worked collaboratively on an Oil Spill Mitigation Lab. The purpose of this activity was for students to focus on preventing, containing, and cleaning up oil spills to minimize their environmental impact.



8th graders presented their Research Projects on the Holocaust, Genocide, and oppressed and displaced people. Students in both houses met together to share their work over a three day period. The unit concluded with a presentation from Mr. Sami Steigmann who was a Holocaust Survivor from the labor camp Mogilev-Podolsky in Ukraine. Mr. Steigmann shared his life experiences and a message of "never giving up, never lose hope, and enjoying the life you've been given".



Thank you to Dr. Paul Wichansky for speaking with all LVMS students last week!

Attention 5th, 6th, and 7th Grade Families!
The Washington Township School District is evaluating the potential for introducing Fencing to our complement of LVMS extra- and co-curricular opportunities for students during the 2025-2026 School Year. Before proceeding, however, our Leadership Team wishes to survey 5th, 6th, and 7th Grade families to determine overall interest in this program. Please take a moment to complete this survey if you wish for your child(ren) to be involved in a Fencing Club if one were to happen at the Long Valley Middle School. Be aware, this survey will close on Friday, April 11th.
