Hello LHS parents… as you begin putting your summer items away in preparation for autumn, please keep in mind that PTO would love any “gently used” patio umbrellas for our courtyard tables. Our students are using the courtyard area regularly, and the added shade provided by umbrellas we currently have are a welcome reprieve when the sun is beating down. Please contact Wendy Burbage (WLB1963@msn.com) if you have any you’d like to donate, and we will put them to good use. Thank you!
