Special Events:
During Earth Week the LHS Peace Jam and Green Clubs are challenging each grade level to each raise $600 per class for the Colorado and Kenya based non-profit organization “Technology Partnership” to connect a Kenyan School to the Internet which will help students attain their educational goals and develop as global citizens here in the United States and in Kenya. Collection envelopes for each class will be set up in the LHS Forum and Library during Earth Week. Monday we will announce the winning class. Additionally, there will be an opportunity to volunteer on Technology Partnership school assistance projects in Kenya on a 2014 Kenya Service and Study Trip-an adventurous way to gain IB CAS credit or just see more of the world. Trip information is available on the Peace Jam bulletin board in front of the Library or talk with Mr. Gordon in the Social Studies Department.
Happy Voluntary Lights Off Day!
