This week we are gearing up for our Christmas program, which is scheduled to take place next Wednesday, on December 17th. Please come out and join us at 5:30pm for festive fun! For our students who missed fall pictures, make up pictures are taking place on Friday, December 12th. Please make sure you get your photo taken if you haven’t done so already!
I also wanted to share news that I know is impacting our school community. This weekend, Mrs. Louise Beirne, our Middle School science teacher, passed away after a long hard fight with cancer. We know how hard this is for our students, families, and staff, and I wanted to make sure you all know that there will be resources available tomorrow for those who need someone to talk to. Please make sure you give your special people a little extra love in honor of Mrs. Beirne.
Thank you and good night.

Buenas noches, familia Laker:
Les habla su director, el Sr. O’Shea, con los anuncios semanales.
Esta semana nos estamos preparando para nuestro programa de Navidad, el cual está programado para el próximo miércoles, 17 de diciembre. ¡Por favor, venga y acompáñenos a las 5:30 p. m. para una diversión festiva! Aquellos estudiantes que se perdieron las fotos de otoño, las fotos de recuperación se llevarán a cabo el viernes 12 de diciembre. ¡Por favor, asegúrense de tomarse su foto si aún no lo han hecho!
También quería compartir noticias que sé que están impactando a nuestra comunidad escolar. Este fin de semana, la Sra. Louise Beirne, nuestra maestra de ciencias de la escuela de grados medios, falleció después de una larga y dura lucha contra el cáncer. Sabemos lo difícil que es esto para nuestros estudiantes, familias y personal, y quería asegurarme de que todos sepan que habrá recursos disponibles mañana para aquellos que necesiten a alguien con quien hablar. Por favor, asegúrense de dar a personas especiales en su vida un poco más de amor en honor a la memoria de la Maestra Beirne.
Gracias y buenas noches.
