Landrum kicks off year with back-to-school events

Posted

Landrum Middle School recently buzzed with energy as students, parents and staff gathered for a series of dynamic back-to-school activities.

The excitement began early with dedicated eighth-grade Web leaders, who underwent special training before warmly welcoming the incoming sixth-graders for an exclusive orientation event sponsored by Beaches Orthodontics the week before school started.

This initiative ensured that new students felt at home and ready to thrive from day one.

The momentum continued with a highly successful “Meet the Teacher,” sponsored by Rita’s, where students and their families had the opportunity to walk through their schedules and connect with the educators who will be guiding them throughout the year.

The event saw an incredible turnout, with parents and students alike eagerly engaging with the teachers and the school community.

Capping off the festivities, the Landrum Middle School PTO hosted an exclusive “Meet the Principal” event at The Lodge. Parents gathered for a chance to meet the new principal, Troy Kasting, in an informal and welcoming setting. The event not only provided a unique opportunity for parents to connect with each other but also allowed Kasting to share his background, vision and goals for the upcoming school year. His enthusiasm and commitment to fostering a vibrant and supportive learning environment left a lasting impression on all who attended.

As the school year begins, officials say Landrum Middle School is ready to build on the excitement and positive energy generated by these events.
