LISA West HS Chess
Our HS Chess team competed in the LRSD Chess Tournament this past Saturday. Even though we were down two players, our team still came out on top! We won First place overall the HS Chess Teams, and our very own Brad Cade won first place overall individuals! Way to Go Jaguars!
Poetry Night A Success
LISA Academy West High School held its first Poetry Night on February 12th from 5-6 PM.
We had a variety of games and activities that allowed people to engage and play around with poetry. We also had several students present poetry, including Jolandria Hill, who read a powerful poem of her own composition entitled "A Letter to My Future Son;" Alexander Washington, Kareem Salamah, Baeyan Kattom, Sandy Caracamo, and Jackson Hill, who recited poetry by other authors; Barbara Tuzon, who read an untitled poem of her own composition; and Yaelle Golden, who ended the night with her own true piece on racial inequality and social injustice. Although we only had a small turnout, it was a strong start to what we hope will be an annual tradition!

Aftercare Program Updates
We have made some changes to our Aftercare policy.Starting on March 2,2020, in order to keep students and staff safe, and to have a clear count of who belongs on our campus after the 3:15pm dismissal, going forward, if your student attends Aftercare one or more times in a month, you will be charged the after care fee of $60.00 for the month. After care is a great way to keep you students safe and keep them out of the elements after school.
Per our old policy, if your student attended after care more than 6 times a month from August through the end of February, you will be receiving an invoice for your aftercare charges if you have not already paid.
Any past due balances over $60.00 (one month) or more at any given time throughout the year will result in your student not being able to attend aftercare until the balance is paid.
To register your child for our after care program, please see the front office to get them signed up.
