STUDENT BULLETIN

STUDENT RECOGNITION AND CONGRATULATIONS:

The girl's ultimate frisbee team won both of their games this week. On Tuesday they beat D'Evelyn 10-3. In a scrimmage Thursday against Arapahoe, the final score was 9-7 after a fun and challenging game. Wish the girls luck in their tournament this weekend on Sunday at LHS.

A gigantic and overdue congratulations go out to members of our speech and debate team who competed last weekend at their National Qualifying Tournament at Cherry Creek High School.  The Lions were led by Ben Greenly and Grace Greenly, who qualified for nationals in Duo Interpretation and will represent LHS this summer in Ft. Lauderdale Florida.  Great job, guys.  Rebecca Zickerman is 2nd alternate to nationals in Original Oratory, and Jack Rogers and Ally Procopio were semi-finalists in their events. And a reminder to all members of the speech and debate team, we have a mandatory team meeting today in the speech room after school."

A big thank you to all the Key Club kids, NHS kids, IB kids and staff who helped make cards and donated gifts for the Mothers Day baskets project!  Key Club will be taking 100 gifts and cards over to IFCS this afternoon, which is exactly what we'd hoped for.
Thank you, Lions!

CLUB & ACTIVITY ANNOUNCEMENTS:

IB Senior Theaco 18 proudly invite you to share their final  theatre performance on the LHS
Mane Stage tonight and Saturday at 7pm. The Last Days of Judas Iscariot is a gritty and poignant updated imagining of the Bible story. The show provokes deep conversations about forgiveness and love, and due to the content and language, it is not intended for children.

Our LPS District String Orchestra players present "Electrify Your Strings" on Saturday, April 14th at Heritage High School at 6:30pm.  This unique event features master Electronic Violin performer Val Vigoda (a member of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra), working with our LPS Secondary Orchestra students on-stage in a concert filled with your favorite Rock and Pop music.  LPS has never hosted this event for our students and it is something that you will not want to miss.  Tickets are $5.00 General Admission and can be purchased at the door.

Auditions for the 2018-19 select choirs are still taking place this week.  Sign up on the Choir bulletin board outside the choir room or talk to Mr. Farrell.
