Our Earth Day Recyclable Hat competition was good for the planet, and fun for us!

What do lions get for lunch at the zoo? Thirty minutes - the same as the elephants! South Elementary first graders set up a regular zoo in the campus Discovery Center to display their animal projects!

Nothing motivates quite like a little friendly competition, so North, South, and West Elementary classes have kicked off the Basic Facts Classic, a month-long virtual competition where students learn, practice, and solve problems using basic math operations! #LCPfamily
