Lenski Helps Broncos Tackle Hunger
Let's top last years success! During the month of October, Lenski is partnering with the Broncos Tackle Hunger Team in an ambitious effort to feed hundreds of hungry families in metro Denver. Lenski students have the opportunity to serve our community by donating nonperishable food items. Please encourage your kids to bring items in and fill the boxes outside their classroom doors. We currently have filled 31 boxes and we are heading for the end zone and a goal of 150 boxes!

Thank you to Vision & Hearing Screening Volunteers
Vision and Hearing Screening was a success this year. Thank you to all the volunteers who helped during the 6 days of leading students back and forth to the Screening Bus. The kids were so excited to do this, and screeners Patti and Jo were great to work with. Thank you to everyone who did a double shift and to the backups. Although we didn't use the backups this year, we had peace of mind knowing it would be covered if needed.
Thank you to: Jessica Maxwell, Peggy McCall, Cathy Walker, Melissa Beecher, Carrie Romine, Lauren Forcia, Kathy Todd, Krisin Trauernicht, Charlotte Brady, Dawn Burke, Jill Chao, Carol Coates and Jenna Sellers. |
