LVR Weekly Update - 22Jun25

Good day out there, LVR Community.
Student schedules for 2025-26 were posted to the MyEdBC portals yesterday and messaging was sent for how to book sessions to look at changes to individual students' schedules. More dates will be sent soon for the end of August.
This week's main image comes from our LVR Awards Ceremony last Monday and shows the recipients of our four Major Graduating Students Awards. Please click to see the full listing of this year's awards recipients.
Images below include our new bike racks that were proposed, organized, and funded by LVR Student Council led by Ms. Kitch and built by Mr. Chambers' Metalwork 10-12 class and grade 12 scholarhip recipients after a thank-you letter writing session led by Ms. Terlingen.
Thank you to students, Kaia Fitz-Earle and Nick Zelinski, of LVTV for their work recording and posting last week's LVR Grad 2025 Cap & Gown Ceremony.
Please see the LVR Grizzlies Athletic Awards for 2024-25 presented at the LVR Athletics BBQ on June 10.
