HEY! You!!
Just a quick reminder--when you see HEY!, think Lafter, and when you see Lafter, think HEY! There are still a few programs running. HEY! Help is still available as usual. On Tuesday is our mentoring program that comes to us from Youth Services--RAMP. Also on Tuesday is InSight Photography. Mr. Paytas had 10 Ultimate players this week so he will be throwing disks again on Wednesday. If the weather is good and there is enough interest, Bike Force will ride on Wednesday as well.
Newspaper will continue for some time on Thursdays and D&D will be on Tuesday. No matter what, however, you will need to remember that there is no late bus. Any questions, ask Susan or Megan.

S.E.E.K. summer camp

Who wants to sit in a classroom for three weeks in the summer? No one! That’s why Leland and Gray’s new Middle School Summer Camp, S.E.E.K., will have campers up and moving while gaining skills that will help them to succeed in middle and high school. Families of current 6th & 7th graders should have received a S.E.E.K.  brochure in the mail this week.

There will be a Parent Informational Meeting in the LGUHS Library, Tuesday, May, 29th at 7:00pm.
