News From LCHS 4/6/24
Dear LCHS Community,
As we enter the months of April and May we have a lot of exciting events, games, and activities planned for the next few months! Please keep your eye on our school calendar and these communications for updates.
As a reminder, CMAS will begin the week of April 8th for junior high students and PSAT / SAT the week of April 15th for high school students. These assessments are a great way for students to show what they know, where they are at, and help inform post-secondary opportunities. We ask that all students are well rested and show up to do their best!
The schedule for testing is below. To ensure less disruptions to the school day and better testing attendance, we are holding regular school during testing days. When students are not testing, they will be attending their classes. There will not be early release or asynchronous days for grade levels not testing like we have done in previous years.
In addition, please visit www.lakecountyschools.net/assessment for more information. This page includes resources to answer questions about state assessments and provides links to our Administrative policies regarding assessments.
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend,
Scott Carroll
Principal
Lake County High School

A message from Project Dream:
Dear Families,
On 4/15 , we will have a practice Lockdown Drill at Lake County High School. We practice this drill so that we may familiarize the staff and students with our expectations and routines in case we are ever faced with a crisis.
In a Lockdown, students and teachers are trained to follow “Locks, Lights, Out of Sight”. Students move away from doors and windows and maintain silence. Teachers lock the classroom doors, turn out the lights, account for students and wait for the First Responders to open the door. We practice this Standard Response Protocol to ensure safety in our school should an emergency arise.
Please take this opportunity to talk with your child about safety at school and at home. Please contact Taylor Trelka at 719-427-7003 if you have any questions about our Standard Response Protocol or lockdown practice.

Lake County Energy Assistance Program
Residents and workers in Lake County and Leadville—please take this survey about housing challenges!
Lake County and the City of Leadville are conducting a housing needs assessment to understand the current needs of residents. This survey is a critical element of that assessment. This information will help the county and city create programs to better address housing needs.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/LakeCountyHousing
Please take this survey if you:
· Live in any part of Lake County the majority of the year.
· Are retired or work in any part of Lake County. This includes if you live outside of the county and commute into Lake County for your job.
Do not take this survey if you own seasonal or vacation properties that you occupy occasionally or own long- or short-term rentals in Lake County.
· Your responses are confidential. Your name or place of residence will not be linked to your survey.
· This survey is not associated with any political party or election or ballot issue.
· The survey takes about 12 minutes to complete. If you complete it by April 30 you will have a chance to win a $100 Visa gift card.
Tell your friends, the people you work with, and family members about the survey!
If you require a reasonable accommodation to participate in the survey, please contact hello@rootpolicy.com or call 970-880-1415 x102. An example of a reasonable accommodation would be taking the survey by phone because you have difficulty reading and/or do not have a screen reader that can assist you with the survey.
