They are off! We are excited to send our Jr. High students to the MEC for a 2 hr shift packing meals to send around the globe. Thrilled to take part in this opportunity for our students to learn the power of being a part of something bigger than themselves. The goal is over 720 boxes -we will see if they can beat it.
The livestream link for tonight's Varsity Football game against St. Joe is listed below. The video feed will begin at 6:45 PM. For those of you who are able, we hope you'll attend tonight's game in person to support our Laker students! Go Lakers!

IF you need to rework your schedule- contact Mrs. Delagrange or Mrs. Stroop IMMEDIATELY."
Open House is tonight! 6-7pm for 7th graders and 7-8pm for all other students. Looking forward to seeing you all. The senior meeting originally scheduled for tonight has been postponed. A new date will be announced soon. Go Lakers!

I could not possibly be happier with a group of graduates than I am right now with the class of ‘22. Today was finally what it should be. Fun celebrating their accomplishments. They returned the senior run back to what it should be and actually cleaned up a little as they ran. (Very noisily). LaGrange, you’ve raised some good ones and it was a lot of fun practicing with them today. Looking forward to filling these seats again on June 3rd. Now to go empty my office of the 500 balloons they left me.
One of my favorite events of the year. The 8th grade celebration is underway and not being rained on. Always amazed at the food they can put down and still run around just being silly. Such a fun night planned by the student council, the sponsors, and volunteer parents. Watching kids be kids is always so good for the heart.
8th grade celebration is a wrap, now time to crash the FFA Banquet. Love seeing kids excel and reflect on their journey.
(This post is also going to school email at 4:30 today as well)

A huge thank you to the students, parents and staff that were able to come to the first Principal's Council Meeting tonight. I am always encouraged when the community steps out and helps talk through ideas. A lot of great ideas shared tonight. The next meeting will be in September and I will get a date out as soon as fall schedules are solidified.
