LGU WEEK ONE!

Week one of Little Giant University (LGU) got off to a strong start with 20+ students daily!  LGU is the after school program that meets Tuesday-Thursday, 3:00 -5:15 p.m.  Students receive a healthy snack and transportation on Tuesday / Thursday provided by Waynesboro Public Schools.   Check out the schedule on the blogs calendar!

At the heart of LGU are teachers providing assistance to students.  No student needs to fail a class with positive assistance.  Below Mr. Tyler helps with math.  Mrs. Biggs also helps on Tuesdays.


Students signed up for many activities during week one including Saturday for Science (S4S) who met with new LGU staffer, Rick Lackey, who is a JMU graduate.  S4S students will travel Saturday to the Virginia Science Museum to learn through "THE BODY and BRAINS" exhibit.  S4S students travel twice a month to work on science enrichment with experiences and meeting scientist at local colleges.



Students signed up for the Culture Club, Minecraft and CyberPatriots.  While many activities happened this week, it seemed the highlight was student's working with Mrs. Donnelly making "monkey bread".










Students left with plates of monkey bread to share with their families!  Did it make it home?  
Great job!
