Finally, thank you to the several families who donated to the One Community Campaign this school year.

YEARBOOK PHOTOS NEEDED!
Attention all Cool Cats 
We are collecting photos for this year's yearbook and we need your help!
Each week, we will be asking for different photos.
This Week:
We would like pictures of our Cool Cat kids zoom setup at home and in addition, we would like a headshot of your Cool Cat smiling, laughing, or talking...preferably from the shoulders up with a light background.

Please send photos to yearbook@davesavehsc.org.*
*Include your child's name, grade, and teacher in your email.
In this unique year, the H&SC has decided to purchase yearbooks for ALL students.
Note: Parents will have the ability to customize 2 pages of their child's yearbook for free this year. We will need to share parent contact information with our yearbook provider TreeRing in order to give parents access to their child's account. If you do not want us to share your information with TreeRing, please email Amy Garza at agarza@lgusd.org and we will remove you from the list.
