Remote Spring Co-Curricular Celebration
By Vicky Boomgaardt, Adam Ross and Sarah Young
In March, when our school moved to a remote environment, the entire LCS community believed in the power of bringing students together for co-curricular activities; activities that allow students to connect, be active, be creative and, of course, to have fun.
In March, when our school moved to a remote environment, the entire LCS community believed in the power of bringing students together for co-curricular activities; activities that allow students to connect, be active, be creative and, of course, to have fun.
It has been inspiring to see students and their facilitators work together in 35 different programs. From dog walking, to the School of Remote Rock, to fitness programs, to baking, and so many more, our students embraced the opportunity to connect with friends and peers outside the classroom.
We are thankful to the students and their facilitators for making the remote co-curricular program such a unique and valuable experience. At a time when motivation can be challenging, the LCS community has come together in flexibility and open-mindedness. Everyone who participated in these programs are winners. Today we recognized award winners in the groups who represented and highlighted all of the great accomplishments of the group as a whole.
