Lindbergh High School senior Blake Hebert and teammates George Upmeyer & Harry Soell (Kirkwood), and Bryce Nicolay (Oakville) were recognized for their "Contributing with Composting" program initiative. The team believed getting kids involved with composting would be a fun and interactive way to introduce STEAM concepts, while also reducing landfill use, reducing climate change contributors, and creating rich soil that can be used for gardening.


Congrats to the LHS Hockey team on their exciting upset last week against Vianney. While they lost their game against CBC, it has been a capper to a fine season! See the article below.
