Summer SOL Adventures!

SUMMER SOL ADVENTURES!

I am excited to share an awesome summer opportunity with you!  

The Summer SOL Adventures day trip program is a locally grant funded program for Louisa County High rising 9-11^th graders.  The goal of this program is to offer LCHS students a FREE opportunity to expand their critical thinking skills, reading comprehension, and ultimately their confidence through a series of summer field trips led by LCHS instructors.  Each adventure will foster a learning experience that will support necessary Virginia SOL skills, and help bridge the summer learning loss gap many students experience.

Opportunities are limited.  Only 10 student spots available!

Digital Learning Day 2014

Help us make a difference in the future of education by joining us this February 5th for Digital Learning Day!  In today's interconnected world, the way students learn is increasingly reliant on digital technologies. This doesn't just mean having the newest resources and gadgets, it means fully integrating digital learning throughout the entire educational experience. In order to fully prepare students for success in college and a career, schools and libraries everywhere need to embrace digital learning. We can't prepare every child for the digital future without your support. Help us build the wave of innovation this February 5th by ensuring every child has the opportunity to learn in an innovative, digital environment!  Visit www.digitallearningday.org to promote your participation in Digital Learning Day!
