News From LCHS 10/7/21
Dear LCHS Parents & Guardians,
This month we are asking students to focus on taking two action steps. First, we want them to be here every day. We know that the first step to being successful at school is being present for the instruction and getting in person support from the teacher. We have already begun our attendance challenge. The crews in each academy that have the highest attendance average will be given a pizza party!
Secondly, we are asking our students to think about when and how they might perform acts of kindness. Generally, if we all live by the rule “be kind”, we know our school community will be a safe and welcoming place for all students.
Please encourage your child to attend and be kind! We’re looking forward to having a great month.
Best,
Erin Dillon
LCHS Interim Principal
