Fall Blood Drive - Please Help A Child In Need!
September 19, 8:30 a.m.
|
On Monday, September 19th, Lenski will host its Fall Blood Drive to benefit Children's Hospital from 8:30 am to 1:40 pm. The blood donation process takes about 30 to 45 minutes total, from arrival, paperwork, a brief interview to the actual blood draw. Donors should have something to eat and hydrate beforehand. We will have snacks available after your donation. Please know that 30 minutes of your time could mean a lifetime to a child in need!
If you would like to donate blood, please click here. If you would like to donate snacks, please click here.
Children's Hospital's guidelines for blood donors are as follows:

Sprinting for the Stars - Lenski Student Fund Run
October 7 - during regular school hours!
|
What is Sprinting for the Stars? Students will ask family, friends, and neighbors to sponsor them by either donating a flat amount or a dollar amount per lap. Students will run/walk as many laps as possible around a 1/8th mile track. When is Sprinting for the Stars? The Sprint takes place on Friday, October 7th on the Lenski field during the regular school day. Who gets to participate? Everyone! All students can run and any one else can volunteer! Pledge sheets will be sent home with students after a Pep Rally on September 23! Where will the money go? Towards playground improvements! And of course, it will also go toward the staffing budget to significantly increase Lenski's ability to provide specialist teachers who supplement the classroom experience for ALL of our students with differentiated, small group learning. What percentage of the donations will go toward Lenski? 100% of all donations go to Lenski. This fundraiser is replacing the bi-annual auction that Lenski would normally hold this year, so we hope the students are motivated to run! What do the students gain from this experience? A fun race day, an emphasis on healthy lifestyle through exercise, and a chance to earn prizes by reaching fundraising goals with pledges!
