Library News The library is the place to be on Friday during noon hour as 30 people meet for 20 minutes of uninterrupted, sustained silent reading. Just imagine taking a trip with a book and never leaving home! News from Mr. Pike, Night school classes for the computers will begin on Wednesday, March 1. It was ;e oliiy course that receiv:s registrations. I recently attended a workshop in Lon- don in which a number of school principals discussed ways that education should en- courage students to stay in school. Major points that were raised include: attitudes of success and self worth are for- mulated at a very early age; home and school must work very hard during a child's early years to invoke a positive self image and attitude; skills and attitudes are equally important to the accumulation of pure knowledge facts. This all fits in very well with our school goals at L.C.P.S. which are: help each child develop a positive self system; help each child develop skills to become effec- tive adults in the 21st century. Students actually drop out in high school (age 16) but what has been established years before is often a contributing factor! elk of proudly -presents Tuesday, March 14, .1=989 Ws 7:00 pram E ?Nada , uy a ('�/.l'rto aSt. u) 7Via9igua A chance to visit ;displays of area businesses .prepared to provide you with all your wedding needs.
