We've all had teachers who inspired or challenged us at important moments in our lives. These teachers are truly special and, like all teachers who excel at their jobs, they deserve our sincere thanks. May 6-10, 2013 marks National Teacher Appreciation Week, and the LCS school board is honoring our teachers by publishing a list of "faculty favorites." The board is encouraging LCS parents to show their appreciation with a small token of their gratitude, such as a favorite candy bar, book, or snack food. Please take the time this week to tell your teachers how much they mean to you.
