BLOG ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Littleton Public Schools is excited to announce the addition of a CHSAA sanctioned boys volleyball team for the 2022 spring season that will run from February 28th through May 5th. The team will be made up of players from Littleton High School, Heritage High School, and Arapahoe High School. All three schools will combine to form a single district wide program. Nationally, boys volleyball is the second fastest growing sport in the country with a 22% increase in high school age participation in the last five years. As evidenced by this fast growth, many young athletes that are new to the sport are finding a niche with the fast paced, dynamic style of play. There will be an informational meeting on Monday, December 13th at 8:00 pm in the Littleton High School Gymnasium for all interested players and parents. If you have any questions, please contact head coach Rob Ridenour at nridenour@lps.k12.co.us. Come out and learn more about this incredible opportunity to be a part of creating a new tradition in LPS!

Want a chance to make a kid's day at our Sister School in Uganda, Africa? Then head to the cafeteria hallway and take a snowflake off of the GIVING SNOWMAN! It will have the age and gender and suggested present of an orphan at the Musana Orphanage--in Iganga, Uganda! This orphanage was started by two LHS alumni in 2009 and has 82 kids living year-round on their campus. They would LOVE to have a present from you to help them have a wonderful Christmas and New Year! Take your presents to the forum to Ms. Prestel and turn them in by Friday, December 17th. Thanks!
