Lenski's Technology Gets a Boost!
    
     
     The Lenski PTO recently held a fundraiser to benefit the Heart for Minds - Technology Initiative with the purpose of replacing two computer carts and adding eight new N-stations to the classrooms.  Thanks to the generosity of our Lenski parents, the event was an overwhelming SUCCESS!  These computers will be available for use and in your student's hands when they return from Winter Break. 

     Coming Soon:  Look for more information on how you can help keep the initiative alive through our Tech Shares program.
