Thank you to our educational partners at MicroSolutions! They have made a donation to the District of $1000 worth of KwikFill gift cards to be given out to students and families in need of support during this time of high gas prices! Transportation to sports practices, rehearsals, and school activities can be expensive and they wanted to help make it just a little easier for families! That is a show of true Laker spirit! Thank you MicroSolutions and Go LAKERS!!
