What’s Going On The Week of May 9th
Important reminder that Thurs, 5/13 we will be running on an Excellence Assembly Schedule due to the Ranger of the Year/Excellence Assembly.
See details below for Senior check out this week and underclassmen next week.
To Honor Retirees: Mr. Diamond, Mr. Swanson, Ms. Thirkell:
- Donate to the new Legacy Teaching scholarship:
- This scholarship serves to honor our past educators' Legendary Performance, to acknowledge the role and work of our present educators, and to support future educators. We hope to lift up, support and inspire the best and brightest in our own LP family to continue our most vital work and life’s mission. It is said, “Teaching is the one profession that creates all other professions.” Our teachers want to pay it forward to the next generation of teachers. We fundamentally believe that it is teachers who will continue to make a difference in the lives of our young people as they journey towards their tomorrows.

Our Transition class (consisting of 18-21 year old students) is learning to recycle computers at the Grace Best facility. Students who cannot access our community unpaid work experience are already gaining valuable hard and soft work skills in this safe and structured setting.
The students need more materials to work on. We are asking you to help! If you have computers you are thinking about getting rid of, please consider our students. The usable parts will be picked up by Blue Star Recycling, and the data in the hard drives will be pulverized by their machine.
We are able to receive your computer donations on Wednesday, May 12 between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.
at Grace Best, 66N. Jefferson Street (the second building south of the Administration Building). Access the building via the west or north door, press the entry button, and someone will come out to receive your donation.
We CANNOT accept any TVs or printers or cell phones.
Neither D38 nor the Transition program benefits monetarily from these donations, but the training is truly irreplaceable for these students. Thanks so much for your help!
The staff and students of the Transition Program
Questions: contact Robert at rtegtmeier@lewispalmer.org or (719) 238-7921
