- News from around the school!
While attending this summer’s Little League World Series in
Williamsport, LJM fifth grader, Samuel Koons, and second
grader, Benton Koons, met the first team to ever represent
Africa. This Ugandan team made a great impression on the
Koons family. Although the Ugandans live daily with
tremendous hardships, they were able to experience an
incredible journey thanks to baseball.
In their honor, the Koons family has joined with the
organization Pitch in for Baseball to collect lightly used baseball
equipment to send to Africa.
A collection box will be located in the LJM lobby through
October 5 for LJM families who wish to donate baseball gloves,
cleats, equipment bags, helmets, catching gear, new baseballs
and softballs, and any other baseball equipment. (For safety
purposes, please do not send bats to school on the bus!)
Thank you in advance for helping to spread the joy of baseball
to needy children across the world!
“Please help our students become responsible reporters. If problems occur on the bus, students should always tell the bus driver as soon as possible. Many time the bus driver can “fix” the situation before it ever makes it to the principal’s office. If the problem is still happening after that, talking to the teacher or someone in the office should be the next step.”
