Lanoka Harbor School Newsletter
September 2022
Dear Lanoka Families,
Lanoka Harbor School welcomed 445 students as it opened its doors for the 2022-2023 school year. Many changes have occurred since last year at Lanoka Harbor School, but certainly not the warm and friendly welcome of the teachers and staff as they greeted the students. The opening of the building was a success due to the exceptional efforts of the staff and the wide-eyed enthusiasm of our students. Throughout the summer our custodial staff cleaned, painted, and made repairs to our building in preparation for our anticipated arrivals. Our secretarial staff, comprised of Mrs. Parker and Mrs. Leitner, worked diligently to ensure that our students, parents, and staff had the proper materials necessary to start the school year. The teachers spent countless hours, often staying into the night hours, preparing their classrooms. After seeing the excitement of their arriving students, the teachers were most certainly rewarded for their efforts. As always, our wonderful PTO was involved in the efforts in many ways. Some of their activities include breakfast for the staff, school planners/folders for the students, and publicizing our Summer Reading Paw recipients on their Facebook page. All of us at LHS are grateful for being blessed with such motivated and supportive parents.
We are now set to begin our new adventure that will become this school year. Here is the LHS supply list that will be needed for 2022-2023:
Patience - Encouragement - Flexibility - Positivity - Deep Breaths - Understanding
Calmness - Compassion - Respect - Cooperation - Kindness - Humor
And of course, PRIDE!!!
Sincerely,
Jeffrey Brewer, Principal
Theresa Kilmurray, Supervisor
The Power is in The PRIDE!
