Flags Flying at our Schools

October's Thing of the Month
The LMTC "Thing of the Month" winner of a Kokopelli coupon is . . . Ish Patel! Congratulations Ish!
If you would like a chance to win a Kokopelli coupon, stop into the LMTC in November and take a guess at our random object in the glass case.
Did you know we have project tools you can check out in the LMTC? Like this handy "cardboard knife". Safer than scissors! Cuts better than a box cutter! And safe to the touch! Check one out for your next cardboard cutting extravaganza! (Probably would have been handy when you were making Halloween costumes.)
