BreakDown STL - Breakdown St. Louis will be conducting an assembly for our 6th-12th grade students on Tuesday, Nov 19.  This assembly is both part of our concerted efforts to address the mental health needs of students, and one that contains very powerful messages about big topics.  The messaging is Gospel centered and uses a number of media to impact students.  The assembly will begin at 9:45 a.m. and is about 100 minutes long.  We welcome parents/families to come in that day and sit in on the assembly.  

We encourage you to explore the Breakdown St. Louis website and read about the organization and the presentation.  Please fill out and return the Opt Out Form if you do not want your student to participate on the 19th.  If we do not receive an opt out form, your 6-12 grade student(s) will attend.

Canned Food Drive -  We are partnering again with the WC Fire Department to collect canned goods for our local food pantry.  The winning class will have a pizza party compliments of the fire department and will compete against them in our annual dodgeball game.  So bring those canned goods to your class so we can be a blessing to those in need.  

Toy Drive – We are also again joining our local community sponsors in collecting toys to bless those children in our community who are less fortunate at Christmas.  Please bring your unwrapped toys and games to the barrel across from the school office.  

Fundraiser – We would like to bless our new LCA kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Anna Wilcoxson and her family.  The Wilcoxson family has been faced with some overwhelming medical needs for their daughter, Ginger.  Because of your generosity we are over halfway to our goal of $5,500 for a life-changing treatment.  Please click here if you are able to help.  Wilcoxson Family Fundraiser

Bible Fair - As many of you may have heard, 1st grade teacher Mrs. Jami Jaeger was recently in an automobile accident.  She is recovering but is still not at school with us.  We ask that the LCA family be praying for her healing during this time. 

Due to the absence of Mrs. Jaeger, who spearheads our annual Bible Fair, we are postponing the Bible Fair until later in the year.  The Bible Fair is an important part of the culture of LCA, and we value it.  We also are so thankful for Mrs. Jaeger, whose passion for it and desire to orchestrate it well make it such an amazing event.  We truly do not want her to miss out on this so will be rescheduling it once we know more.
