Home & School Association (HSA)
The LGE Home & School Association (HSA) has many wonderful activities planned for the 2012-2013 school year to enrich our children’s educational experience. There are many opportunities for parents and guardians to become involved in their child’s education through the HSA. The HSA’s operating budget, funded primarily by fall fundraising activities and family memberships, provides for activities such as student assemblies, “mini-grants” to teachers, community service projects and other spirit building activities like Books Alive, Bingo Night and Field Day.
