Class Gift
Every year the Sixth Grade class gives a gift to the school. We owe LAES much gratitude particularly due to the unprecedented events of the past two years. The Sixth Grade class was surveyed about what they would like to give to LAES. The students ideas were amazing and very thoughtful and included items such as:
- recess/playground equipment
- soccer goal post
- football brackets and volleyball nets
- a sunshine sign
- school flag
- sculpture of Ms. Archer
- all kinds of seating, whether an outdoor bench, or in the gym, beanbags, or couch
Based on how much is raised through class donations we will be purchasing items from the students recommendations. You can donate to the class gift when you purchase your students ticket. The deadline to donate is May 13th.
Baby Photo Game/Slideshow
Please submit 1 baby photo and up to 12 photos of your child from school events K-12. The non-baby pictures should be from school events only throughout the students’ school years K-6.
