Do you like to read and talk about books? Do you appreciate a little friendly competition? If so, get ready! Battle of the Books is gearing up for another great year! If you would like to be selected for the Introductory Tutorial on September 29, please complete the form that your LA teachers have posted in their Google Classrooms. Mrs. Jordan will be sharing all of the information, book titles, team info, etc. at that time. Please see her if you have questions. Let’s get ready to READ!!!
"We had our final 8th grade track dual meet of the season on Tuesday and the boys continued their winning ways, beating the Knights from Newton by almost 40 points. Not only did Caden Muller and Cuan Snyman win every event they were entered in, but our depth is really starting to show! Cole Troupe got first place in shot put by over 6 feet! Grant Brandburg ran like a gazelle and helped propel his relay teams to two first and one second place finishes, and Ethan Hunt won a remarkable race in the final 400 leg of the Medley relays, edging out a crazy fast runner in the last few strides. We head to the district championships next week on Wednesday at LPS stadium and have a great chance to win it all again! Please come and support us!"
Today is the day you have all been waiting for! Teams will be kickin’ it old school tonight for a little competition, fun and exercise during our 7th Annual Kickball Tournament. After school, bring your backpack out, place it under the trees on the hill by the blacktop, and get your team gathered up to listen to instructions from Mr. Meier. If you’re not playing, we hope you still hang out to enjoy the good vibes and food from the food trucks. Good luck and have a great time! Remember, sportsmanship is key to everyone enjoying this annual tradition.
