It's Friday night lights in Frankfort!
At today's Bring Change2Mind meeting we talked about our fears and how we sometimes may hide behind a mask as a defense mechanism to conceal our emotions and vulnerabilities.
Tonight, over 250 LWE students were inducted into the National Honor Society. NHS is an organization that provides students with the knowledge and skills to become transformational leaders in their school, community, and more. The NHS officers explained how NHS is built on the four pillars of scholarship, service, leadership, and character.
Counselor, Mrs. Babcock, was nominated by NHS to give the keynote address -- Reminding our students to celebrate their accomplishments, but also take a moment and focus on their mental health. NHS Advisor Mrs. Richter closed the ceremony welcoming the new 2024-2025 members. Congratulations Griffins!

Join us to see our fall play Arsenic and Old Lace. The performances are Friday October 18th and Saturday October 19th at 7pm. Tickets are $10 at the door.
Drama critic Mortimer Brewster’s engagement announcement is upended when he discovers a corpse in his elderly aunts’ window seat. Mortimer rushes to tell Abby and Martha before they stumble upon the body themselves, only to learn that the two old women aren’t just aware of the dead man in their parlor, they killed him! Between his aunts’ penchant for poisoning wine, a brother who thinks he’s Teddy Roosevelt, and another brother using plastic surgery to hide from the police—not to mention Mortimer’s own hesitancy about marriage—it’ll be a miracle if Mortimer makes it to his wedding. Arsenic and Old Lace is a classic black comedy about the only thing more deadly than poison: family.
