Hello Littleton High School parents! If you are the parent of a junior or a senior, you know that Prom and After-Prom are right around the corner, and that our students are excited about this very special evening. The PTO After-Prom Committee has been working very hard to make this a unique, fun and safe evening for our kids at Brunswick Zone, Park Meadows. In order to maintain a safe environment at Brunswick Zone, we need the help of additional volunteers to chaperone the event. Please use the following link to sign up to lend a hand for one of the available shifts, www.signupgenius.com/go/20F0A4FACA623A13-after. These shifts are 2 ½ hours each, and go quickly. Again, After-Prom relies on parent volunteers to help this run efficiently and safely for the benefit of every student that attends. Your assistance is greatly appreciated! If you have questions or are unable to access the link, please contact Wendy Burbage at wlb1963@msn.com. Thanks in advance to everyone who steps in to help!!!

Last year we worked on beautifying the library… this year we’re working on the cafeteria…If you have any green silk plants you’d like to donate to LHS, the “Green Thumb” team will be tackling the cafeteria planters this spring. As you do your spring cleaning over the next few months, any greenery you don’t need any more can be used for our project. Bring to Therese in the main office, and we will put your “used” green silk plants to good use! Thanks in advance for helping with the cafeteria project. Questions? Email Wendy Burbage at wlb1963@msn.com.
