Good day out there, LVR Community.

Congrats to our LVR girls' soccer team for their gold medal performance in Osoyoos last weekend!  All the best to all of our LVR spring athletics teams - girls' soccer, girls & boys' rugby, golf, and track & field - and a big shout-out of gratitude to the staff sponsors & community coaches who provide these opportunities to our students!
