It is a wonderful school. The teachers and staff go above and beyond their duties on a daily basis.

All my encounters w/ LHK students have been overwhelmingly positive. As some people have told me since <a href="http://www.tcextra.com/news/publish/lakevillejournal/Tiny_Falls_Village_school_struggles_with_costs_future/299400.shtml" rel="nofollow">last week’s article</a> came out, maybe all that money Falls Village spends on its school is worth it. Geoff,

I thought the editorial was very good and very sensible. Also, I thought I should say that Lee Kellogg School impressed the dickens out of me this morning when their eighth grade visited Beckley Furnace. 22 kids, all well-prepared, all armed with notebooks (which they used), and they all seemed to have attention spans about 300% of the typical 8th grade attention span. Whatever they are doing in Falls Village is working. Other towns should take note. And a good paper it was, Janet (and Terry too)!

They were on the newsstands early this morning ...
