FROM THE DEVELOPMENT OFFICE
Just in Time for Our Fall Sports Season
Promote your business and support our student-athletes by advertising with us. We believe our community partnerships are invaluable. Advertisers on both of St. Luke’s campuses have their names and message viewed by thousands of members of our Mobile community each year.
If you or your business would like to show your support for our Wildcats with a banner along our athletic fields or on a sign in one or both of our gymnasiums, now is a great time to do this and take advantage of a full school year of exposure to our own families and fans as well as all of our visiting teams and their fans.

What is Project Lead The Way?
Project Lead The Way (PLTW) is an innovative project-based learning program that incorporates science, technology, engineering, math, and medicine. PLTW empowers students to develop and apply in-demand, transportable skills by exploring real-world challenges in an exciting and engaging way. Students not only learn technical skills, but also learn to solve problems, think critically and creatively, communicate, and collaborate. They work through modules that consist of activities, a project, and a problem. They first work through an activity where they gain knowledge and skills. Then they use those skills to investigate a meaningful project before transferring and applying skills to a real-world problem. And most importantly, this begins in K4 and continues through high school.
We are so proud of our dedicated faculty that has spent much of their summer preparing to teach this amazing new curriculum that we will launch this year at St. Luke's! Jenna Tigner, Heather Lersch, Karen Haynes, and Diane McCleery have attended weeks of training and completed untold hours of homework assignments themselves. They are excited to begin using what they have learned to propel our STEMM curriculum to a whole new level.
Civil Engineers Wanted
If you, or someone you know, are a Civil Engineer and would like to volunteer as a speaker or to assist with our new Civil Engineering and Architecture class, we would love to talk to you.
Contact: Karen Haynes at khaynes@slesmobile.org.
Biomedical Supplies Needed
If you have expired or surplus medical supplies, our Biomedical Sciences Program would greatly appreciate any donations. We rely heavily on our medical friends to keep our clinical skills lab stocked. If you have anything we might be able to use before discarding it, we would appreciate you reaching out to us to see if we could use it. Currently, we are looking for bandages, sutures, IV and phlebotomy supplies, casting materials, EMS splints, athletic tape, and anatomical models for dentistry.

Time, Talent, Treasure Survey
In the spring, we sent a survey to our families regarding ways to help the school. Many responded, but others said they missed seeing the form. Here it is again. Please consider taking a few minutes to complete this form. At St. Luke's, there are many ways to help. Some like to volunteer time, some have a specific talent (or skill) that the school may need, and others prefer to make help financially.
