Read-a-Thon celebration assembly... Prank the Principal

Posted Date: 04/01/26 (04:39 PM)

Dear Lancaster Families,

It was SUCH a fun day on April Fool's Day here at Lancaster! We had our whole-school assembly, celebrating our 4th & 5th grade spelling bee winners and the end of our Read-a-Thon. Among other things, we gave the award of an outdoor picnic lunch (coming soon) to:

the top class who read the most minutes (Ms. Deignan at 22,876 minutes) and
the top class who raised the most (Mrs. Hershman at $3,355).

The top readers in each grade earned a lunch bunch in the office with pizza & 2 friends, and the students who raised the most money earned a "Prank on the Principal." Be sure to ask your child tonight about the craziness that ensued! I think I'm STILL getting whipped cream & silly string out of my ears!

I can't thank our PTA board enough for working tirelessly on this fundraiser! We are looking at options for playground equipment, and we'll be sharing more info soon.

Tomorrow is World Autism Awareness Day- Wear Blue
I hope you have a good evening!
