“Better than a thousand days of diligent study is one day with a great teacher”
- Japanese proverb
This morning, The Mount graciously lent their most gorgeous of Berkshires settings to LPS for our Convocation. The staff returned in high spirits as they gathered under the giant lawn tent where they were welcomed by the Superintendent, Dr. Collins, and by Oren Cass, Chair of the School Committee. This year's keynote speakers were LPS students, representing every grade level, who shared with the staff what they like the most about attending Morris and LMMHS and what they were eagerly looking forward to when they return to school in two days time. Time was set aside for Education Association business and for a whole District team-building scavenger hunt on the grounds. The morning wrapped up with an al fresco lunch on the lawn (thank you to Market 32 for the public school discount) before staff returned to their respective school buildings for trainings, drills, and final preparations for the return of our students!
