Happy New Year!

We hope that everyone enjoyed spending time with family and friends during the winter break. Our students and teachers are refreshed, renewed, and ready for all the upcoming activities at LIS. Come and enjoy our students making beautiful music at the Winter Choral Concerts. 5th and 6th grade will be performing at 7:00 pm on 1/12/12 and 4th grade will be performing at 7:00 pm on 1/18/12. Remember, you can check the online school calendar any time.

Two of our LIS 5th graders, Cole and Ryan, recently spent three hours cleaning up a park in their neighborhood. You can tell from this photo that they really enjoyed the experience and were proud to take the initiative to do something good for their community.


Monday, January 16, is when we celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday. The MLK Day of Service is part of United We Serve, the President's national call to service initiative. You can check out local service projects or visit the official MLKDay.gov website to register a service project of your own.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: 'What are you doing for others?'" How will you answer his question?
