Show some love to your favorite LCHS student and/or staff member!
Help us celebrate National Counselors Week by showing your love to our counselors. Send a nice email or write a note to your favorite counselor this week. We appreciate all of our counselors: Mrs. Poole, Mrs. Rosser, Ms. Brault, Mrs. Denton, and Mrs. Scrisu. They make an impact each and every day.
Progress Reports are being sent home with your student this week for all four classes. Please take time to talk about their progress in their classes so far this quarter.
It's not too late to catch up if your student is behind.
Remember that attendance is important, and students must not miss more than 8 days per class. Being present ensures the best opportunity to learn and complete work. If you have questions or concerns about your student's progress in any class, reach out to their teacher via email or phone.

Friday, January 10, 2025, will be an early release due to potential inclement winter weather.
Students and parents, please see the two schedules below. The Jacket Sting Schedule will be followed on Tuesday, January 7. Beginning Wednesday, January 8, students will follow the Regular Day Bell Schedule. Please note on the new bell schedule that ALL students will be going to 3rd block regardless of what lunch they have. A Lunch will be dismissed via the bell 10 minutes into class on a regular schedule day. This means no student should report to lunch after second block ends. The first lunch will not start until students have reported to third block on time and a bell dismisses them for A Lunch to begin. Thank you!
The Teacher-Made Exam schedule has been updated, so lunch start and end times aren't as complicated.
Don't forget!
Exams start on December 12 and 13 with teacher-made exams. The following week is for state exams. Please see all three graphics for more information. Thank you!
Seniors and parents, join us this Wednesday night to learn more about FASFA when preparing for college.
