THANK YOU for blessing the staff during Parent/Teacher Conferences with such yummy food!  We appreciate you!  You may pick up your containers in the teacher’s lounge.

Our 11th and 12th Graders participated in the Modern Woodsman Speech Contest.  The finalists were Liz Moss, Hope Kassebaum, Maddy Janes, Wesley Lawson, and Josh Dames.  Michael Foran received 3rd place, Olivia Sarver received 2nd place, and Jenna Grow received 1st place.  CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Canned Food Drive – We are collecting canned/dry goods for our annual Canned Food Drive with the Wright City Firefighters which runs through November 6th at noon.  All food collected will go to the Wright City Food Pantry.   Remember, the class that brings in the most canned items wins a pizza party and a dodgeball game with the firefighters!   

Service Hours – We are requiring our 7th – 12th Grade students to do half of their service hours by Christmas break.  Students will be required to stay December 18th – 19th to complete required hours.  REMINDER – STUDENTS IN 7TH & 8TH GRADES MUST COMPLETE 10 SERVICE HOURS AND STUDENTS IN 9TH – 12TH GRADES MUST COMPLETE 20 SERVICE HOURS BY THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR.  Half of those hours may be done outside LCA.

The 7-12 English classes are raising funds to send to Samaritan’s Purse to help in the following ways:

7-10th grade classes are raising funds to share in a classroom build, while 11-12th voted to raise funds to Samaritan’s Purse Human Trafficking fund. Funds will be collected until a time in November when we will send the money raised to Samaritan’s Purse.

Please see the attached information about a Bingo and Chili Cook-off Contest to be held on November 1st.  The money raised with go towards Arthritis Foundation.
