Goodie bags filled with fun snacks, note cards and highlighters for studying were distributed to students at LSMSA on Wednesday, Nov. 29, to wish them luck as they begin final exams on Tuesday, Dec. 5. Sponsored by the LSMSA Foundation, the distribution of goodie bags before finals has become a tradition at LSMSA. “We know that exam week is a stressful time for students, and we want them to know that the Foundation, along with the entire LSMSA community, is cheering them on as they finish the semester,” said Angela Robinson, interim director of the Foundation. The goodie bags also included an LSMSA window decal. Five lucky students received a $25 Amazon gift card.
Louisiana School for Math, Science, and the Arts (LSMSA) is the preeminent state-supported residential high school with competitive admissions for Louisiana's high-achieving, highly-motivated sophomores, juniors, and seniors. As a public school, there is no tuition to attend, and assistance from the LSMSA Foundation ensures the program is available to all qualifying students regardless of family financial need.
