LHS Greenhouse Ground Breaking Event with Joe and Friend LHS Greenhouse Ground Breaking Event with Students and Officials LHS Greenhouse Ground Breaking Event
Lafayette High School’s 
Greenhouse Project Event
The Greenhouse Project
was launched on Tuesday, November 10th, with the ground breaking ceremony at Lafayette High School.  Many Rockwood administrators, Wildwood city officials, Rockwood Board of Education members, local businesses and Rockwood students were there to celebrate!  John Shaughnessy, principal of Lafayette High School, initiated and continues to spear-head this project with a true passion for his students.

The greenhouse will be a facility utilized as an inclusive, hands-on learning environment for students. STEM classes will be conducting experiments and vocational training opportunities are just some of the projected opportunities for the greenhouse. The produce and herbs grown in the greenhouse will be used in the school’s cafeteria.
I am so proud of my son, Joe, who has been on the ground floor of “dreaming and creating” this project.  I will be volunteering my nutrition expertise and experience to the project as part of the Lafayette High School community .
MORE information to come once the greenhouse is completed!


 

S.T.A.R.S.

Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital and Metro West’s first responders are working together to promote the Special Needs Tracking and Awareness Response System, or S.T.A.R.S, program. It’s a system that provides medical information of a special needs child to first responders prior to emergency situations. “The purpose of the STARS program is to create a tracking awareness system for our ambulance districts, fire districts and community hospitals to both recognize the special needs of patients inside their coverage area and have the training to appropriately care for these patients.” To learn more about this program, click on Metro West’ link (Metro West’s S.T.A.R.S. program) or Cardinal Glennon Children’s link (Cardinal Glennon S.T.A.R.S program).
