💦🏈 Soak-A-Teacher Fundraiser! 🏈💦
We are excited to share that several teachers will be participating in the Mini-THON “Soak-A-Teacher” fundraiser during the high school football game this Friday, September 18!
The fun begins at 7:00 p.m., and participating teachers will each be assigned a quarter during the game when they will be available to be “soaked.” Teachers will be located at a designated area, likely near the concession stand.
Students can purchase the following soaking options:
💦 $1 – Water soaker spray
🎈 $3 – 2 water balloons
🪣 $5 – Bucket of water
Teachers can also choose to “opt out” of a particular soaking by making a $10 donation to Mini-THON instead.
Come out, enjoy the football game, have some fun, and help support a great cause! We would LOVE to see our students and families there cheering us on! 💙💛
Game starts at 7:00 p.m. We hope to see you Friday night! 🏈💦

💙💛⚡️ Getting Ready for Sweet Corn Day!
The Littlestown FFA has been busy preparing for Sweet Corn Day which is today, Monday, September 14!
On Friday, 12 FFA members stayed after school to lend a helping hand to six visiting kindergarten classes as they husked an impressive 85 dozen ears of sweet corn! 🌽 The corn will be served in both the high school and elementary school cafeterias on Monday.
And the best part? All students and staff can enjoy an ear of Littlestown FFA sweet corn for FREE! 🎉 This special treat is made possible through the generosity and teamwork of the Littlestown FFA and LASD Food Service.
But the learning doesn’t stop with the lunch bell! 📚🌽 In conjunction with Sweet Corn Day, three groups of FFA members will visit our first-grade classrooms to teach lessons about:
🌽 Corn products
🌱 The corn life cycle
🔬 Corn biology
A big thank-you to our FFA members, kindergarteners, first graders, and LASD Food Service for making Sweet Corn Day a fun, hands-on learning experience for our students! 🌽💙💛
