News From LCHS 9/26/21

Dear LCHS Parents & Guardians,

Next week is Homecoming week! We’re excited to celebrate our student athletes, as well as show some school spirit. Our Student Senate has put together our spirit day schedule. Your child is encouraged to participate by dressing according to the daily theme. Students may wear hats during Spirit Week as long as it goes with the theme of the day!

Here’s the schedule:

• 9/27 Monday: Hippies/60’s
• 9/28 Tuesday: Pajama Day and Stuffed Animals
• 9/29 Wednesday: Western   “Western Wednesday”, 7-12 Homecoming Pep Rally (8:05-8:35am)
• 9/30 Thursday: Purple and Gold, Homecoming Parade down Harrison at 4pm
• 10/1 Friday: Crowning of Homecoming King & Queen at intermission/halftime of Boys’ Soccer Game. Homecoming Dance from 7-10pm at LCHS (for high school students only).

Also, our official October count day is next week on Thursday, September 30th. The state uses our attendance on that day and during the October count window to determine funding for our school; funds we use to support instruction for your child. We hope to have a strong turn out that day and thank-you in advance for ensuring your child is in attendance. Additionally, we will have an attendance challenge coming up! More details to come.

Have a great weekend. We hope you get to enjoy the fall weather.

Best,

Erin Dillon

LCHS Interim Principal

Additional Messages:

 October Count: Each year our schools have an official day in which attendance of students is counted. This count of students is used to calculate funding our district will receive from the state. Typically, this count date is October 1^st. Because we run a four day calendar and will not have school on October 1^st, our official count day will be September 30^th. Thank you in advance for your support of having students in attendance on September 30^th this year.
