THRIVENT MEMBERS:  If you have Thrivent Choice funds to designate, please do so.  During the months of April and May an extra $20 will be given to the organization to which you designate your funds (limit of one organization).  Questions???  See Keith Mensendiek or Jan Buss.

 

BUILDING PROJECT UPDATE:  The exterior walls are taking form as block is added to the initial poured forms.  Electrical connections are being rerouted this week so that the block can continue upward.  The troublesome air conditioner pad (which led to water seepage in the cafeteria) has been replaced with improved drainage connections.  The new stainless counters and roll-up window openings are scheduled to be installed on May 10 and May 17 so as not to disrupt the school lunch service.

 

TRINITY LUTHERAN HIGH SCHOOL will hold an Honor's Convocation on Wednesday, May 7, at 7:00 PM in the Bollinger gymnasium.  Students will receive scholarships and awards, and the senior class will be recognized as well.  All are invited to come and be a part of the celebration.
