On Monday, October 14, Lake Shore and Steffen Middle Schools each hosted a special assembly to celebrate 20 years of collaboration and friendship with Japanese students from Tomisato, Japan. Each year approximately 8-10 Japanese middle schoolers travel to Mequon-Thiensville through the exchange program to stay with a host family and experience life as an American student.

Eighth-grade students from Steffen and Lake Shore middle schools explored career possibilities at the JA & Mequon-Thiensville Career Day on Wednesday, May 22. Thank you to those community members who volunteered their time and expertise!
