This week for hope week, we had dress up days and small activities to continue to bring awareness. Monday, we had pajama day with the theme of being comfortable in your own skin. Tuesday was twin day, with the meaning of being connected to someone. We also had an activity of seeking out or finding the elf. Seeking out or finding the elf symbolizes seeking out help when you are struggling. Wednesday was jersey day and teaming up against suicide. Students enjoyed the root beer floats as we promoted “hope floats” and even when things seem difficult, there is always hope. Today’s theme is construction - building each other up and sticking together. We gathered today as we stick our amazing staff members to the wall. Tomorrow students should wear red or black, which are the primary colors for the hope squad.

During the Courage Retreat that was held on Tuesday, 7th grade students from LCWM, St. James and Truman were inspired and empowered to act with courage and make positive choices. Through interactive activities, courageous discussions, and engaging stories, students learned to identify peer pressures, overcome fears, and stand up for their beliefs. There were also brave students from LCWM who shared what their act of courage will be in front of the entire group of 200 students.
Students in Ms. Missling's class were able to experience a bit of real life this morning thanks to the SouthPoint Federal Credit Union's Budget City simulation. Students visited a variety of vendors selling homes, childcare, vehicles, food, clothes and "fun stuff". After purchasing their items, they had to visit with the credit union to finalize their budgets and see how much money was left at the end of the month. It was a great learning experience for everyone! Also, a special thanks to the local volunteers who came to sell items including LCWM alumni, Sydney!

Today, we honor and thank our veterans for their incredible service and sacrifice. In recognition of Veterans Day, our secondary students had the privilege of hearing inspiring words from President Abraham Lincoln’s powerful address, reminding us of the dedication of those who serve our country. Our elementary students also contributed to the day’s meaning by putting on a heartfelt and wonderful program. Through their songs and performances, they reminded us all of the deep gratitude we owe to our veterans for the freedoms we enjoy every day. Thank you, veterans, for your courage and commitment!
Saturday, November 9, 2024, was a memorable day for making music at Lake Crystal Wellcome Memorial. Nine talented students had the honor of participating in two different prestigious Honor Bands.
Five students were selected for the St. Olaf Festival of Bands Honor Band at St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN. The students arrived on campus at 8 a.m., ready to immerse themselves in a day of intensive music-making. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Henry Dorn, the St. Olaf Band Conductor, and guest conductor Dr. Travis J. Cross from UCLA, the students rehearsed diligently from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Their hard work culminated in a concert at 4 p.m. that showcased their dedication and musical growth.
In addition, four LCWM students were selected to participate in the Bethany Lutheran College Honor Band. Under the direction of Mr. Benjamin Faugstad, the Director of Bethany Lutheran Bands, the students rehearsed throughout the day and concluded their experience with a concert at 5:30 p.m. in the Bethany Chapel.
All students were chosen for these opportunities through director nominations and are taught by Malia Jones, the LCWM Director of Bands. Their participation in these events highlights the students’ talent, commitment, and the strong music program at LCWM.
