They toured the facility and were excited to see the recent remodeling and renovations. They are escorted by John Madden, our current Facilities Manager, Todd Camlek, MS/HS Principal, and Bonita Dorscheid, who taught math at LHS between 1977 and 2009.

The 3rd Grade students have been learning about call numbers in the Fiction and Everybody sections of the library. Students had the opportunity to work in groups to find books with call numbers from these sections of the library. Being able to find their own books helps students gain their independence in the library.
Congratulations to these Middle School students for making the honor roll for the 3rd Quarter! (Not pictured: Faith N. and Macie F.)
