It was Mrs. Capouch's 8th-grade leadership class who thought of "cookies for kindness." She talked to our FACS teacher, Ms. Anderson, and asked if her classes could make as many cookies as possible if all of her students supplied the ingredients. The kids in her FACS class made chocolate chip cookies for two days. The kids in leadership class gave them out to people in the neighborhood yesterday and today. What tremendous teamwork and kindness our LPA kids and instructors demonstrated!

Some class highlights from a few classes of Mrs. Capouch. Her 8th grade leadership has been working hard helping bring tools and equipment into the new edition of shop class. They have also helped bring large items out of the school that needed to be thrown and have picked up trash around all the school grounds! The janitors are loving it! And After a week of a golf unit her advanced PE class, the students got to take their skills to Green Valley Golf course! It was a beautiful fall day and they had a lot of fun! Great Job Raiders!

Two days remain until our Open House Night. Let's begin by introducing our Middle/High School Staff. The following faces will be both unfamiliar and familiar to you. We are thrilled to have all of our middle school staff and classrooms in close proximity and to be developing a new "middle school model" for our seventh- and eighth-graders. Give these wonderful teachers a warm welcome; we are fortunate to have them here!

The Lake Park Betterment Association and the Cormorant Sportsman's Club had a party in the park last night, and our high school fall sports teams showed up to celebrate. The All Star Cheer Academy performed, there was a watermelon eating contest, and there were games, relay races, and amazing food. Our "LITTLE RAIDERS" adore getting to know our "BIG RAIDERS," so this community event has quickly become a fan favorite.

That time once more... Please complete the Bus Route REGISTRATION. Please submit this form as soon as possible so that our new Transportation Director can organize the routes. https://forms.gle/8jwVN4ebFmdAm5bM9

Congratulations to Bailie Holstrup on winning the Exceptional Volunteer Award!

They plan events, volunteer, and give briefs to Family Readiness Groups regarding what military youth go through in times of deployment. Bailey was awarded the Exceptional Volunteer Award for having the most volunteer hours this year. She has 202 hours and has the most hours in Region 8 (North Dakota, Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Montana, and South Dakota).

The last week of April Raider Archery traveled to Sandy, Utah to participate in the National NASP Tournament. They did an amazing job representing the Lake Park-Audubon school district. They competed on Friday, in both bullseye and 3D. The afternoon was full of PR’s and season high team scores! In bullseye the team placed 15th out of 36, with a season high score of 3223. In the high school girls division, Kaylee Sternitzky placed 8th out of 343. In 3D the team placed 14th out of 34, with a season high of 1611 points. On the Centershot side of the tournament, Saywer Nelson placed 2nd in the Middle School Boys division. It was an honor just to say they were able to male it all the way to Nationals, but to be able to say that they did an amazing job is even better. Their scores do qualify them to move on to the next step in Myrtle Beach in June. We more than likely will not be going, but it is an amazing feeling to say that we qualify.

Congratulations to Shaylyn Taylor and Karsyn Peterson for topping off an amazing speech season with a 14th place finish at the State Speech Meet this Saturday, April 29th.
