What a fantastic week!

What a fantastic week! There have been walk-a-thons, carnivals, poetry slams - - and of course, some fabulous lunchtime lemonade stands! We also launched our poetry contest - - and one assistant principal found himself in a sticky situation (duct-tape sticky, that is).

We've also launched the LEMONCAST - - our project Podcast! Have a listen! We'd like to invite ALL OF YOU to create a podcast episode (even if you didn't sign up for the Lemoncast Project!). Have your class create a short podcast and email it to Tom McGee at mcgeet@lmsd.org. Tom will upload your LEMONCAST episode to the server. Don't forget to subscribe!

Here are the fundraising totals thus far, as reported by some of our schools:

Remember to submit your daily fundraiser report any day that you sell lemonade!
