Hello LVR families,

I can’t believe that we are already into October! As you will see below, there are already lots of good things underway at LV. Did you know that both our Drama and Band programs have grown exponentially this year? The LVR Jr. Girls’ volleyball team came 5^th out of 24 teams at the Vernon Secondary invitational. The rugby teams also had a rugby tournament in Castlegar last week; Grizzlies vs. Coyotes. Finally, we have almost reached our goal of raising $2500 for cancer research through the Terry Fox Foundation. If you haven’t had a chance to donate yet, click HERE to access the LVR donation page.

Announcements...   
In case you missed it, in coordination with Interior Health, LV will be hosting a “Health Hub” running on Mondays for students to access health services. Please check out the FAQ page linked below for more information.
