Now and then, we have the pleasure of celebrating our amazing staff and highlighting the fun things they're up to during the summer months. Last week, Emmet Belknap's Physical Education Teacher, Mrs. O'Neil, embarked on her first Empire State Ride—a 7-day journey from NYC to Niagara Falls—to raise funds for cancer research at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Institute. She rode an impressive 569 miles and raised $6,219 to help end cancer.
Mrs. O'Neil draws daily inspiration from her 16-year-old daughter and husband, both of whom are cancer survivors. Their strength fuels her commitment to this important cause.

🎳 Our Charles Upson fourth graders had a blast walking to the Bowling Alley for some fun and bonding time before school is out for the summer! It was a great way to celebrate the end of the school year and create lasting memories together. ✨
Last night, Emmet Belknap's chorus and band students serenaded our neighborhood during one of our favorite events of the year: 🎶Music in the Loop! 🎶 Thank you for joining us for a picture-perfect evening full of music, friends, family, and community!
Yesterday, our elementary school halls were filled with joy, nostalgia, and inspiration as seniors donned their caps and gowns for the cherished LCSD Senior Walk. 🦁❤️
Teachers greeted their former students while little lions cheered for the graduates they’ve looked up to for years. 🌟
This tradition celebrates our journey of growth, learning, and community. WE ALL BELONG.
Congratulations, seniors – the best is yet to come! 🎉🎓
Reminder: Graduation is at Artpark on Thursday, June 27 at 6 pm.
Our fabulous singers from Aaron Mossell's eighth-grade chorus had the opportunity to sing the American and Canadian Anthems during the Buffalo Bisons game at Sahlen Field last night! Two students even caught pop flies! ⚾️🌭
🎶What a great way to kick off the summer!
Today's agenda was packed with excitement and preparation! 🎓🍳 Our seniors kicked off the day with a delicious breakfast and some quality time with friends. Then it was time for graduation rehearsal, where they practiced lining up, the procession, and a full ceremony walkthrough. Later, they attend a safety program, enjoy lunch and games, take grad photos by the flag, and visit the elementary schools! Stay tuned for those pictures too! 📸🏫
We kicked off with a hilarious fun run, featuring our amazing teachers sprinting in costumes that had everyone laughing and cheering. Students then ran with older LCSD students to encourage them along the way!🏃♀️🏃♂️🎭
But the fun didn’t stop there! After the run, they cooled off with an epic foam party that turned the school grounds into a bubbly wonderland. 🎉🫧
And just when the students thought it couldn’t get any better, the Lockport Firefighters came out to give students a refreshing spray when the sun was hot, keeping everyone cool and smiling. 🚒☀️💦
A huge thank you to everyone who made this day unforgettable!
