Let’s go Eagles!
We are excited for our LCA Eagles Football Team and they head into the playoffs! This Friday, the Eagles will face off against Paraowan right here at home on Wilson Field! Make plans to join us at 4pm for a great afternoon of football and hopefully a victory for the Eagles to move ahead to the next round! If you’re not able to make the game today, you can always livestream with us at on Youtube at Layton Christian Athletics or follow this link HERE!
We are also excited to cheer on our Boy’s Volleyball team as they take on Wasatch High in the Quarterfinals at 6:30pm at Wasatch High School. Our Eagles are ranked #1 and we are so excited for them as they continue through the USSA Volleyball State Tournament. Semifinals will take place tomorrow at 10:30am at Wasatch High School with the Championship to follow at 5:30pm!
Good luck, Eagles!!

Drop off & Pick up Protocol
As you’re likely already aware, we have done a large renovation to our parking lot and outside area this summer! We are so thankful for the Grant Funding that was made available to us to complete this project! Please notice during drop off each morning that there is a designated drop off lane for those letting kids out.
If you plan to park to drop off or pick up your child, please do so in the designated parking slots. Please do not park in the drop off lane and wait for your child.
Thank you for your help to make this a smooth and safe process for our children!
Elementary Reading Program
On Track Reading is in full swing! Students are doing great with their books/minutes and earning those fun prizes!!! If your student hasn’t started to read, it’s not too late! Be sure to have your student turn in their signed reading tracker so they can qualify for prizes and work towards a trophy and certificate when they reach 50 books or 1500 minutes! If you have questions, please contact your student’s teacher.

First Aid Kits + Service Hours
Another great way to earn those Service Hours — LCA classrooms are in need of a few more items to complete our classroom safety kits! Check out our sign up to see what items are needed. If you’d like to provide these items for our classrooms, service hours will be given at the rate of 1 hour per $10. Just sign up, bring in your item(s) with the receipt and hours will be added to your account!
You can find the sign up HERE!
LCA Holiday Needs + Service Hours
I know you think it might be too soon, but the holidays are right around the corner! We have over 200 international residential students currently that we need to provide a nice home cooked Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner for them to share in our traditions in America.
We are asking for your help as you are out and about shopping in the upcoming weeks and months. We will provide double service hours if you bring in the receipt for your purchase. Example: Donate a turkey that costs $25 and you would receive 5 service hours($50). Most of our houseparents will cook all of the items that you bring, but we would also accept the help of you cooking it in advance and dropping off that morning if you want to go the extra mile.
You can sign up to bring items HERE!
All (non-precooked) items for Thanksgiving would be needed by November 18 so we know what we would still need to purchase. If you are bringing fresh food (pies, breads, etc) or you want to prepare cooked items-please drop off on Wednesday, Nov 23 by 5pm.) We will do another follow up for the Christmas meal also.
This is very important to the kids and all our houseparents and a great way for you to earn easy service hours! Again, please email me if you are able to donate and what you will be able to bring.
Thanks again! We appreciate all you do to help us.
LCA After School Needs + Service Hours
LCA is in need of the following items to help with our after school programs. If you have any at home that are in good shape and complete and are willing to donate because you aren’t using them anymore, we’d really appreciate it. If you buy new and want to donate we can offer service hours in trade for the receipt amount. Please drop off in Main Office.
