Welcome

As part of a Teacher Support Initiative during my 2021/22 Presidency, we did quarterly events for the staff. Spring brought sunflowers with a note reminding teachers how they were "key" to LBHS. 

I ran book swap for 7 years at Thurston and TOW. One of my favortie events, we traded over 25,000 books through the years amongst the students, and then back out to the community and with shelters, low income school districts and Friends of the Library locations in the Newport/Laguna Beach/ Dana Point area. 

Parents were incensed when the District proposed exploring a 4 x 4 option at the High school after the COVID year when students at the secondary school were unable to attend in person until April 2021 and with only two classes per trimester. Some students in Thurston had PE and a language and ended at 1:00. Not a robust schedule. This is the second protest in so many years.
