The students enjoyed pizza, fun activities, and received a new book to read before the next meeting. The first book the club will read is “Ghost” by Jason Reynolds. The club was created because of a grant from the Lufkin Education Foundation.

Cheryl McCarroll, Anderson Elementary nurse, was given the Purple Heart of Excellence Award, an award given by the Lufkin ISD Health Services department to recognize campus nurses who go above and beyond.

Congratulations to LHS Commended National Merit Students and National Hispanic Recognition Program Students!

“Everyone should know how to change a tire and put brakes on your car,” according to Kevin Thigpen, one of the four district mechanics that works on the school’s bus fleet and service vehicles at the Lufkin ISD Transportation Building.
