🎒 WE’RE OREGON BOUND! 🌲

Seven of our incredible students have qualified for the National Competition this June, and they need YOUR help to get there!

To make it fun, we’ve given each student their own "wagon" for the journey. For every $50 raised, their wagon moves one step closer to Oregon! 🫏💨

Whether you donate to a specific student or to our general fund (which helps the whole group!), every dollar helps us reach the finish line. We also have business sponsorships available. If you have a business that's interested, please send me a message or email: [email protected].

Help us "fill the wagons" at the link below:

Some of our Educators Rising students were active in the community last night at LCHS' first SpringFest! They had a great time running the "Guess that Educator" activity, and even had a special guest visit: our very own Superintendent, Mr. Straley! 💚💛

A huge thank you to all of the educators who provided a photo for the activity, it was so much fun!

Playoff season continues in The Jungle this Saturday at 1:00 pm as the Lions face off in the Regional Semifinals against Huguenot High School! This is going to be a game you don't want to miss!! 💚🏈💛

Our VIP Experience will be a little different this week, we're calling it "VIP Experience - Playoff Edition, Limited." 😄

Included in the VIP Experience this week will be:
- 6 free tickets for entry
- 6 rocker style chairs set up under your own private tent at the end zone, for a front row view!

Because we have to eliminate two of our features this week, you'll receive more tickets per donation. All entries reset each week in the playoffs and the deadline to enter is Wednesday, November 19th at 5:00 pm.

Don't forget, your money goes to help fund projects and competition for our future educators at LCHS! We're so thankful for all of the community support so far this season! Louisa is the best!!
