Dear LCHS Families,
Happy New Year and welcome to 2026! It has been great welcoming students and staff back into the building as we settle into the second semester. There has been a calm, positive energy throughout the building as routines restart and classrooms come back to life.
As we move forward, we continue to focus on creating a learning environment that supports student engagement, focus, and connection. Clear, consistent routines are an important part of that work, including our expectations around cell phones during the school day.
For students in grades 9-12, cell phones and other devices are expected to be secured in their Yondr pouch throughout the day. Beginning next week, students will bring their pouch with them as part of their daily routine and will show it to their teacher as an entrance ticket to class. If students do not have their pouch, they will receive a mark towards restriction.
For students in grades 7-8, cell phones and other devices are turned into the designated storage box in their Crew teacher’s classroom each morning, helping students start the day focused and ready to learn.
We appreciate your partnership in supporting these expectations. When school and home are aligned, it helps students build good habits and stay engaged in their learning.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions. We are looking forward to a strong and productive second semester.
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend,
Scott Carroll
Principal
Lake County High School
