Prom is in the air! And, the Lawrence Township School STUDENT Foundation (LTSSF) hosted their signature fundraiser…the Prom Boutique. The Prom Boutique is a prom dress shopping experience for LT students. Beautiful dresses in all sizes and styles were donated throughout the year. LTSSF created a boutique atmosphere for all LT students to enjoy. It was so heartwarming to see the excitement and support for everyone who came to try dresses on. We saw amazing smiles as girls made their selections. Needless to say, there were also a lot of selfies taken!

“Everyone who wants to go to prom should be able to, but it’s expensive. We make prom affordable. We sold dresses for $20, so while it’s a fundraiser, we’re really providing a service,” shared Nehemiah Boyd (LC) and Caroline Eads (LN), LTSSF Co-presidents.
“Seeing student foundation members organize, promote, and work in the Prom Boutique underscores the importance of teaching young people the importance of giving to their community. In our case, it is peer to peer philanthropy which is even more powerful,” stated Jenny Guimont, LTSSF Co-advisor.
High school students who have a passion for making an impact in their community gives us all hope. Students supporting students is powerful. THEY are POWERFUL! |

| As we move into April’s National Volunteer Month, we celebrate you and all that we have and can do together. Today’s students benefit from your gifts, service, and support just as you did when you walked the halls at LC or LN.
The hours of volunteer service you give to programs like EdEx by organizing free classroom supplies for teachers, the support you give by attending different LTSF events, and the dollars you donate toward funding programs like Legacy Study Trips means access and opportunity for ALL students in Lawrence Township. You make an incredible difference! |

Can we reach more students? Yes! Can we empower more opportunities? Together we can! There are opportunities for volunteers to spend a few hours ranging from folding letters, to organizing the food and clothing pantry, or perhaps serving on a committee like the one that awards scholarships! Consider some easy ways to support LTSF by sharing our social media posts and attending events like June’s golf outing and inviting all your friends! Feel free to contact me anytime at jenifergibbs@msdlt.k12.in.us. I’d love to explore ways to include you in our mission! LTSF is powerful because of YOU!

Celebrate Bringing our Community to Life |
|
|
| Oh what a night… The energy was off the charts, the silent auction bidding was robust, the dance floor was rocking, and YOUR generosity was amazing!
We successfully brought our community to LIFE during the LTSF 2022 Celebration. The Crane Bay Event Center was filled with a community of friends who passionately and deeply support Lawrence Township Schools. We all felt the power of community, and, together, we raised nearly $110,000! Rafael Sanchez from WRTV hosted and shared the importance of LTSF’s work of being the great connector between the students and YOU who enable their success.

Thank you to our sponsors and partners who donated without hesitation, underscoring the importance of LTSF’s mission.
Whether you were bidding on silent auction items and donating to Fund the Needs at the Crane Bay or remotely, THANK YOU for helping to Bring our Community to LIFE! YOU are POWERFUL! We invite you to enjoy this video that was shown at the Celebration |

Throwing it back...Memorable Teachers |
Every one of us has at least one teacher who truly made an impact…and they weren’t always the nicest ones <wink wink>. Was it the one who was the most demanding, or perhaps the one who stayed after school to help you? Maybe it was an after-school club sponsor or chaperone on a school trip. If you have a great and/or funny teacher memory, please share it, along with your LC or LN graduating class year, by emailing nancyliss@msdlt.k12.in.us. We’ll include it in future newsletters.
