Enclosed in this newsletter you will find very important information. Please take the time to read through it so that you are aware of important details you need to know. A few key points: Back to School Open House is Saturday, August 22nd from 10:00-12:00. PE Uniforms will be required this year if you are taking PE. They are $20 and will be available for purchase at Open House. This uniform MUST be worn for PE. Students will have the same School Counselor for all 4 years at LSHS! It is our goal to make sure that we get to know our families and work with students to develop post high school plans. Everyone will have a “plan” when they walk across our graduation stage. Our School Counselor assignments are as follows: • Jaclyn Plucker A-C • Saneik Buchanan D-I • Claire Forester J-P • Aaron Pileggi Q-Z
We have a busy year ahead of us! Our AICE Cambridge program is continuing to grow and our students are engaged in very rigorous studies. We have many exciting events planned for our Center for the Arts Programs. We are most proud that our campus will be open for “teaching and learning” as we continue our journey as an AVID National Demonstration School! Academic Excellence and Rigor is truly a priority for our students and I am very proud to have such a committed staff on board to make this happen. Parents, it is so important that you remain actively involved in your child’s educational progress. We need to work as partners in helping your son or daughter achieve their highest academic potential. Your son/daughter may not always admit it, but they want and need your support and encouragement more than ever. You can assist with monitoring academic progress by reviewing interim reports that come home every Friday with your child and by checking ParentLink weekly. You can also have a voice inside the school by attending our monthly Parent Involvement Workshops, the School Advisory Council meetings and by becoming an active volunteer. We also hope to see you at a variety of our programs, whether that be academic, sports and/or arts events. You are always welcome on campus and your presence DOES make a difference! If any member of the LHSH staff or I can assist you or your student, please do not hesitate to call upon us. I look forward to hearing from you and seeing you at the many school events we have planned this year. See you at Back to School Open House on August 22nd! Sincerely, Jackie Corey Principal
