In the Middle  

If the semester was one week long, right now it would be noon on Wednesday.  
 
It's hard to believe that we are already passing through the middle of the semester, but it is true. Progress reports went home this week through students and their backpacks. 
 
Now is the part of the semester in which students hit their stride. Students have become familiar with their teachers and vice versa, and preliminary exercises have positioned students for the final three fourths of the year.

Let's all give our best efforts, before the Lord, so that this Thanksgiving holiday can truly be a celebration of all that was attempted, accomplished, and learned.

Spanish students wrote notes for each bag packed.

Guatemala Christmas

Christmas preparations came early. LPA students stuffed bags full of goodies for Clubhouse Ministries who will distribute them to Guatemalan children in need at Christmas time. Thanks to the generosity of the LPA community, about 150 bags were stuffed with enough money to ship them and buy 20 pairs of shoes for those Clubhouse ministers to.

Recyclable Castles

2nd graders channels their artistic abilities as they merge science and history lessons. In science, these students are learning about the damage done to the earth through waste and ways to reduce waste. Students then used the last two weeks to apply what they learned by taking typical waste and using it as art supplies for to create mini, medieval, English castles.
