Welcome To The Virtual L&G Student Art Show!
Our first semester was fully remote but that didn't stop our students from making exciting, skilled and personal artistic work. Click on the Padlet link to view our Virtual L&G Winter Art Show.

Dear L&G Families,
As we approach February 8th and the start of in-person instruction, there is quite a bit of information to share with you. I have shared links for many important documents below:
Reopening Protocols (L&G Specific)
WCSU Symptom and Response Plan (for families)
Digital Version of WCSU Screening Form
Our Bell Schedules (Important for ALL students/families to read!)
Bus Routes (on school’s website - please call West River Transportation with questions 365-9240)
Video Link explaining the new protocols (Rebel Report Episode 18!)
In addition, I want to take this opportunity to share a few important things about our reopening plan. We will be holding a “Pick Up” materials day for (primarily) our Remote Academy students. Teachers have already emailed students if they should come by to pick up any materials. Not every teacher will be requiring this, so please check with your child. Pick up is Wednesday, Jan 27th from 7am - 2pm. Students may also drop off semester one materials at that time, as well.
You will also be getting a mailing soon with the following contents:
- Q2/S1 Report Card
- Letter explaining grading changes (similar to the one sent home after Q1 - there haven’t been additional changes!)
- S2 Schedule (you may also access this in PowerSchool)
- Hard copies of the WCSU screening tickets (to get each student started; add’l copies will be available in the first few days of “live” school.)
- AIMS-Web results for those students who took that assessment this winter (MS)
- Document finalizing your child’s cohort assignment (original letters were sent in December, but some changes have been made. If you didn’t request a change, and didn’t hear from us, your child’s status should be the same as that letter in December.)
Finally, I want to thank you for your patience and understanding as we’ve worked hard to prepare the building for the safest possible return for your children. As we all know, educational quality isn’t the same with fully remote learning, as students miss out (minimally) on social interactions which are critical for their mental well being as well as greatly amplify the quality of learning.
If you have any questions about the procedures, I will be hosting a parent information session via ZOOM at 6pm on Tuesday, February 2nd. The link is below.
I sincerely hope you’re all enjoying health and making the best of our current challenge. Please reach out to me with any questions!
Very sincerely,
Bob Thibault
Principal

Kailuna Holmes - Young Writers Project
We want you all to know that Kailuna Holmes (10th grade) has been accepted into a semester long creative writing course with the Iowa Young Writer's Studio. This is (as I'm sure y'all are well aware!) one of the most prestigious/reputable writing programs in the U.S. The program has an acceptance rate of about 2.7% (Harvard is at 5%), and since they moved more of their courses online amidst the pandemic, applications were at an all time high! Go Kailuna, go!
This is undoubtedly a reflection of her writing abilities, perseverance, and courage to apply, but I also know it demonstrates the high quality education provided here at L&G. We have amazing writers and thinkers to work with, and when we introduce them to cool opportunities, they go for it. We are so lucky! Keep up the good work, everyone.
Mr. Testo's Exploratory
Mr. Testo had his students go out and create snow people as part of their class... Here are some of the results!

Please congratulate Riley Barton on being named to the 2020 Twin State Team. (Top HS players from VT vs Top HS players from NH) This is a tremendous honor to be selected to this team. This is only the second player in my 9 years at L&G to be selected.
