LL Owen Parents, you will notice a change on the breakfast menu starting next week. We've noticed the students seem more excited about breakfast when they have more items to chose from. So we are going to have three items they can choose from each day, as well as milk, juice and fruit.
LL Owen is our test school for this change, if the students enjoy this, we will see about expanding the breakfast choices at the others schools as well.

Sergeant Stocker & the WCSD JROTC Cadets came to LL Owen Elementary School on September 1, 2022 and gave a training session for the LL Owen 2nd & 3rd Grade future Cadets. In this training our LL Owen Cadets learned how to do cadence, march, fold the flags and how to raise the flags. Our scholars were very excited to be able to learn from the WCSD JROTC Cadets. At LL Owen after Labor Day Holiday, we will have our LL Owen Cadets use what they learned each day when we present our flags for our building to start our day. Thanks, Sergeant Stocker & the WCSD JROTC Cadets.
