LCU's Romeyo Kirven spoke with our Seniors today about "Unleashing Peace, Power, & Purpose". He inspired our students to look for opportunities beyond high school. Some of the key takeaways were: -You'll never find what you're not looking for. -Adversity gives way to opportunity. -Pain gives birth to purpose. -Let your mess be your message. Thank you, Mr. Kirven, for a positive experience!
