Orchard Field Trip - Friday,
Sept 30  11am

Mathis Orchard
1007  Spence Chapel Rd., Mayfield, KY

It’s harvest time on the farm!  The K-2 Lit Club class theme for the month is harvest and we invite you to join us on a field trip to an apple orchard.  We will walk through the orchard & pick our own apples.  Sample some delicious apple cider, and see how the apple sorter machine works. Remember to pack a lunch and we can have a picnic by the pond.  This field trip is open to any LAMP member who’d like to join us!!

PSAT/NMSQT

PSAT/NMSQT (Preliminary Scholastic Assessment Test / National Merit Scholastic Qualifying Test)
Calloway County High School
Wednesday, October 12, 2011
8:00-11:30 a.m.

To sign up, go to CCHS on College Farm Road in Murray and sign up at the front desk (the sooner, the better, as space is limited). Ask for a copy of the Official Student Guide. The cost is $15 per student. Students may take this test during their 10th grade year “for practice”, but the scores “actually count” when taken in 11th grade. The test covers reading, math, and writing. Practice test books may be checked out from the Calloway Co. Public Library ($20 deposit refunded upon return of the book). From our practice experience, Kaplan and Barron’s have good PSAT practice books, while Gruber’s is quite difficult. It is suggested to begin practice for this test the summer before 10th grade. You may also visit www.collegeboard.com for more information about the test.

Contact Laura Crouse at 762-7375 ext. 103 (CCHS guidance counselor) for more information.

Box Tops for Education

Picture
It's amazing what a little box top incentive can add up to, but over the years we've raised a few hundred dollars, 10 cents at a time. 

Please continue to save your box tops and ask your friends, family and church members to do the same.  Michelle Frownfelter is our Box Tops Coordinator and has sacrificially counted, categorized and mailed in Box Tops to benefit the LAMP group.  Please contact her if you have Box Tops to contribute.  Michelle Frownfelter

Bring your Box Tops to Park Days or any LAMP event!
