🏆 Celebrating Our Incredible Volunteers!

We are incredibly grateful for our Lochside community. A massive THANK YOU to all of our amazing parent and family volunteers who stepped up this spring! Your commitment, energy, and dedication to our school make all of these special programs possible—we truly could not do it without you.

As a token of our appreciation, we drew names from this term's volunteer list. Congratulations to our Volunteer Appreciation winners:

🌟 Emily W.
🌟 Megan B.

You have each won a $25 gift card to Country Grocer! Thank you for everything you do!

Looking Ahead: 2026/2027 School Supplies

It might feel early to think about September, but LEPAC is helping you get ahead of the game! We are teaming up with Monk’s Office again to offer pre-made, grade-specific school supply kits. They come packaged and ready to go for the first day of school, saving you a trip to the crowded stores.

Best of all, a portion of every kit sold goes directly back to funding LEPAC initiatives! Keep an eye on your inbox—we will share the link to the online shop very soon.
