Lotspeich Students Enjoy Bonnie Binkley Assembly

Lotspeich students of all ages recently enjoyed a performance by the Bi-Okoto Drum and Dance Theatre. The African dance company performed a variety of songs and invited students, parents, and teachers to take part in drumming, dancing, and singing. The performance was supported through the Bonnie Binkley Grant, a memorial fund that was established by Lotspeich faculty who sought to dedicate an annual assembly in Binkley’s name. The fund has supported a yearly program that all the children of Lotspeich can enjoy. Binkley was a beloved French teacher at Lotspeich for many years who enjoyed creating interesting and fun activities that taught not only the language but the culture of France as well.
