Movie Night!
2025-09-19
What You Need to Know: Family Movie Night is Friday, Sept 19 at 6PM — pre-order your pizza (by Sept 15) and t-shirts (by Sept 3) to join the fun!
————————————————————
We are kicking off the school year with one of our favorite traditions — Family Movie Night on Friday, September 19, 2025, at 6:00 PM! Doors open at 6:00 PM, and as the sun sets, we’ll settle in for a magical adventure with The Smurfs!
This is more than just a movie night — it’s a chance to come together, build community, and share some laughter (and snacks!) with our amazing L-T families.

Here’s what’s waiting for you:
Pupatella Neapolitan Pizza – Pre-order by September 15! Each pizza feeds one adult (cheese or pepperoni).
Concessions Galore – Fresh popcorn, sweet + salty snacks, and refreshing drinks.
Special Edition L-T T-Shirts – Perfect for our tie-dye station at the event! Pre-order by September 3 to guarantee your size. Families can also bring their own clean white cotton shirts. Supplies will be ready in our school colors: vibrant green & gold! (Tip: sizes run small, so size up!)

Bonus: A limited number of shirts will be available on movie night — but the best way to make sure you don’t miss out is to order early and join in the tie-dye fun with the Spirit Committee!
