🦁 Help LCE Become a National PTA School of Excellence! 💙💛 eventSurvey deadline: Friday, November 20, at 11:59 PM

LCE PTA needs your help!

We are working toward earning the National PTA School of Excellence designation, which recognizes strong partnerships between families, schools, and communities.

As part of this process, National PTA asks families to complete a survey about family engagement, communication, and our school community.

Your voice matters! Your feedback will help us celebrate what we're doing well, identify opportunities for improvement, and continue strengthening our LCE community.
