As schools are gearing up to start back in the next few weeks, we encourage students to gear up as well and make this year the best that it can be.

Every year, teachers and administration of Lunenburg County Public Schools and Kenston Forest School work relentlessly to bring their students excellent, inviting lesson plans, while also including fun activities and events for students to participate in. They do this because they want to see students succeed and go on to do greater things in the future to represent the county in wonderful ways.

So, students, we challenge you to be just as hardworking as those teachers and administrators. Get off to a good start and don’t procrastinate on assignments. Show your teachers you care by being attentive in class and going the extra mile to have assignments done fully on time, or better yet ahead of time.

Think of your future and how much easier it will be if you work hard in school now. You could get into your dream college and go on to have a career you will love. It all starts here, though; right at your school.

Challenge yourself. We know you can do it.
