LTHS Hurricane Sandy Relief Trip

On Tuesday, November 20, a bus load of students and adults from LTHS boarded a bus and headed to a devastated area of Staten Island, NY:  an area hit very hard by Hurricane Sandy.  Borne out of an idea by one of our English teachers, Mrs. Kelly June, a quick approval by our school board and fast preparations in order to get there prior to Thanksgiving.  It was amazing to see how many of our students quickly rose to the challenge and joining us in a significant volunteer effort to assist thousands in need.  We are so proud of our students and adults who chose to go and assist for a single day.  The lessons learned with on this relief "field trip" are the pinnacle experiences that students will remember for the rest of their lives.  We encourage you watch the brief video below to see what we experienced as a school that day.
