We have really enjoyed parent teacher conferences where we get to discuss your students’ future plans. We feel that this shift will help students really own and care about their education. This time with families is a real highlight for us each year. If you have not yet had your conference please reach out to your child’s crew teacher and schedule it.
Exciting News! The HS Boys and Girls basketball teams will be starting district competition this Thursday 2/15. The boys’ team will travel to Sheridan HS for a game at 6pm. The girls’ team will be hosting KIPP starting at 6pm at LCHS. Since this is a CHSAA event the cost will be $7 for adults (18 & over) and $5 for students (17 & under) and seniors (60 & over). These prices are for all spectators including Lake County students, parents, and staff as well. The only passes accepted are CHSAA and CHSCA cards (NOT Lake County or Frontier League athletic passes). We hope you all come out to support the teams!
