Mr. Booth’s G/T class at Camelot Elementary celebrated international dishes while studying countries around the world. Students chose to dress up to represent their selected country or bring a dish from that culture. Such a fun and tasty way to learn!
We will see our students again on Monday, December 1st! Have a nice break!

LHS kicked off the Red Kettle season with a big win, bringing home the Golden Kettle at the Salvation Army’s annual event! 🏆🎉 They earned the top spot by collecting the most support during the friendly competition against Clarkston High School.
A huge thank you to the LHS Leadership students who donated their time and represented our school with pride: Brody, Luka, Adi, Ella, Makenna, and Raegan.
The event included an ugly sweater contest, a potato bar dinner, a silent auction, and activities that all helped raise funds for programs supporting families across the LC Valley.
