Learning Commons Book Return
In a book released today, Robert Downey Jr. (a.k.a. Iron Man) has co-authored Cool Food–a book about food and the climate crisis.
The book presumably contains enough iron. 😊
Please be a superhero and return overdue books and unused Chromebooks to your Learning Commons.
Thank you

Prop Pop Up 2024
Just a reminder to our staff, we would like to provide our graduating students with help in finding their prom dresses, suits, shoes, and accessories by providing a Pop-up right here at Loyola!
Many of you have bought beautiful dresses and suits either for ourselves, or for our kids that you or they will not likely wear again. Please consider donating your very gently used Formal dresses, suits, shirts, ties, shoes, purses, jewellery and accessories – to our Prom Pop-up to support our next round of prom-goers!
Donations can be dropped off to Mrs. Scott in the Main Office. We simply ask to please be sure that your donations are clean, are in nearly new condition and are appropriate for formal wear. If you have any questions, please see Mrs. Scott.
Thank you for your continued support!
