We had a lot of exciting learnings in our last full week of November! Starting our winter sports seasons with back-to-back-to back wins was a great start! Way to go Vikings! We ended this week with some help from our community partners at LAHC. We thank them for educating us all on e-cigarettes, helping us separate fact from myth. As the presenters best put it, “knowledge is the key to making informed decisions to have a long and healthy life!” Though our business is teaching and learning, this is truly our number one goal for all of our students.
