Hello Lions,
Happy Lunar New Year! Our LV/LS ASB students did a great job this week celebrating the Chinese New Year. Highlights included an amazing painted dragon that hung in the quad and a display of Chinese lanterns. Students and staff also wore red today to commemorate the holiday. Finally, ASB students handed out paper fortune cookies during the event. Mine read, "Don't let the past get to you, keep moving forward," and that's just what I am going to do! Thanks ASB!

Opportunity Plus Extended Day |
|
Dear parents/guardians,
It is with great enthusiasm that I would like to inform you of a unique opportunity your student will have to receive additional support called Opportunity Plus. Please review the information below. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Mission: To provide students purposeful after school time within a supportive, trauma informed environment to complete school work, develop social-emotional skills and explicitly build strong character. This will be accomplished with the support of positive student leaders, exemplary staff and knowledgeable community partners.
Who: Opportunity students who have been identified as needing additional academic and social emotional support to succeed.
What: Students will engage in individual and group tutoring and counseling led by teachers and trained community partners. During this time students will have access to caring, trauma informed staff and other adults who can support them academically, socially and emotionally.
When: An extended day, 7th & 8th period lasting two(2) weeks: 1:34 pm - 3:07 pm. Monday, Wednesday and Friday
Why: We know that not every student is equipped with the tools and resources to be successful independently. Additionally, some students need more support to build and refine important life skills such as asking questions, communicating effectively, regulating emotions and goal setting. Other students simply require a dedicated safe space to complete work and ask questions away from distractions.
Where: Library - Our library has been refurbished with tables, and chairs that model a college lounge. The library was designed to encourage students to stay, engage and learn. Several classrooms will also be used.
How: Students will be identified based on grades and attendance every two(2) weeks. Students can also volunteer to stay for tutoring or social emotional counseling.
*During Opportunity Plus all students will be offered a snack.
