Principal's Pen

We are excited to be back at school for another exciting year!  After one full week of classes we are in full swing at LCS.   Athletic programs and classes are as busy as usual. 

There have been several changes on our staff team since last year:  we welcome new staff members Mr. Lloyd Tulp, PAA & PE teacher, and Ms Sue Mills as student counselor.  We also welcome several new students to LCS;   Corey Coulter in grade 6, Kenton Coulter in grade 8, Shayne Joel in grade 10, Kevin Tilton and Stephanie Jones in Grade 12.  We also have six students joining us in Kindergarten this year; Dylan Glubis, Casey Haugen, Jasmine Hundeby, Luke Glubis, Dillian Graham and Coltyn Lemcke.  This brings our student total to 103.

Over the summer vacation the carpet was removed from the hallways be know this will provide a cleaner and healthier environment for all persons at LCS.  It also looks bright and shiny.  Come in and see for yourself.

Sun West School Division has taken a giant leap forward with technology using PowerSchool to track student attendance, grades, classes etc. throughout the Division.  We are living out the Sun West vision -"Learning Together" as we implement this program.  It is challenging and a steep learning curve for all staff but when we are excited as we learn all that it will do for us.  Later in the fall there will be a parent portal - from this you will be able to check in on your own child's progress at any time. 

LCS continues to work at making our school, community, and world a better place as we strive to live out our mission  "Pursuing Excellence" not only in our studies but in all aspects of life.   Our ‘green' strategies continue to be important along with our behavior success plan, and reading initiatives.

The student handbook is in the process of being updated and will be available on the school website along with other school documents including our School Success Plan, SCC news,  information about athletic teams, SRC event and other parent information.  You will find us at www.sunswestsd.ca/loreburn

Lastly, I am excited to back as Principal of LCS.   I am excited to a part of your child's education and all the great work that goes on at LCS.  There is much to learn but I will do my best to help each one involved at LCS as we all work at "Pursuing Excellence" in our lives.  Please do not hesitate to call or drop in, if you have any questions or concerns. 

Mrs.  Judy Brown

Principal
