Welcome to Litchfield Middle School!  We want YOU to get involved here, both during the school day and in our extracurricular activities!  

It is important that you be present and engaged in your classes during the school day.  Research shows that missing just 10 percent of the school year, which is 18 days, negatively affects students’ academic achievement. Attendance has a huge impact on academic performance! 

Attendance improves when students choose to engage in school, both during the day and after school. Recent research suggests that participation in extracurricular activities increases students' sense of engagement and attachment to their school, and thereby decreases the likelihood of school failure and dropping out. Extracurricular activities benefit you in many ways, like providing valuable skills and a sense of purpose. They also help develop executive functioning skills, like developing discipline and prioritizing. We have many extracurricular activities at LMS, including sports, band, drama club, robotics, yearbook club, and more.  For a full list of activities, please visit the “Athletics” and “Club/Activities” tabs on our website.

We hope that you look forward to being a part of Litchfield Middle School and want to come to school.  That said, attitude is self-fulfilling; a positive attitude will help you stay motivated and envision success, while a negative attitude will lead to feelings of frustration and defeat.  Your attitude determines the way you feel; therefore, managing the way you perceive and process events is essential to creating a positive attitude.

With a positive attitude and good attendance, you will have academic success!  We are happy to welcome you to Litchfield Middle School!  We are happy to welcome you to Litchfield Middle School!  I would love to connect with you.

 Here’s to a great school year!

Mr. Peterson, Assistant Principal
