From us at the LIFRC, we would like to thank everyone involved in making this year’s Men’s Lunch at the school a huge success! A special thanks goes out to the Lopez School kitchen staff, Principal Lisa Shelby, and all of the wonderful volunteers and workers who helped with the lunch. We would especially like to thank all of the dads, grandfathers, uncles, special friends, and anyone else who showed up for lunch with the students that day, nearly 50 of you!

As the Readiness to Learn Family Advocate, it was wonderful to see so many of you actively engaged in your children’s education! Seeing all of their smiling faces at lunch was a great sight, and it meant so much to them by having you be there. It has been proven that just be being involved in your child’s education can make a positive impact for them academically, and socially. Something as simple as coming to the school for this special lunch can really make a big difference. Thanks again!
