It has been a busy month in the choir room! On Monday night, the Junior High Choir and Concert Choir put on an outstanding fall concert. In addition, several Concert Choir members participated in honor choirs at Bethany Lutheran College and MSU Mankato.
The first of three school board/student council breakfasts was held this morning. Student council members shared updates on activities, thoughts on start times and lunch, and ideas to "spruce up" the walls in the building! It was a great conversation between student council members, the school board and Superintendent Benson.
LCWM is in need of additional substitute teachers for both Elementary and Secondary positions!
