Join us this Thursday, May 2 from 6-7 p.m. in the LGS Gym to read books from our K-4 authors and view student artwork displays. Hope you can make it!
Celebrate our LGS & WMS School Lunch Heroes on Friday, May 3rd, 2024. School Lunch Hero Day is held the first Friday in May of each year and marks a day to recognize our school nutrition professionals’ outstanding and important work.
The school cafeteria/recess and its staff are about more than just lunches—they’re about interacting with students and providing a great experience when in the cafeteria and at recess. A few other things that the cafeteria staff do are: make sure students get fed, manage the federal lunch program (which is a task!), and make sure students with allergies have appropriate food choices.
As the saying goes, not all heroes wear capes (some wear aprons!).
Lgs Staff: Nichole Boswell, Jenny Bowen, Janeen Chave, Taunya Meeks, Kathy Robinson, Susan Hedgepath, Patty Schrock, Cathy Loy
WMS Staff: Kim Widmer, Kirby Gevelinger, Krista Owsley, Carol Schinzel, Pam Board, Riley Metzger, Amy Larsen
Thank our school cafeteria/recess staff on School Lunch Hero Day May 3rd 2024.
Have a great Summer!
