Friday May 12---Virtual Learning Day
Students,
As most of you know, Friday, May 12, 2023 is designated as a virtual learning day. This means that you will not physically report to school. Rather, you will participate in virtual learning for the day.
Your learning experience in each of your courses may look slightly different. However, there are some commonalities shared among all LHS teachers/courses.
You will be required to login to Schoology and complete an assignment or activity for each class.
Every teacher will be available via Google Meet for specific office hours (See the schedule below).
Not all teachers will require every student to login for office hours (some might). Some teachers may run a Google Meet for their class during office hours. Many teachers may make logging in for office hours optional. That will be up to the individual teacher. Make sure you check with your teacher and/or the daily agenda on your schoology page.
If you do not login for your teacher’s office hours (If required by your teacher) and you do not login to Schoology to complete the assigned assignment, you will be marked absent.
To prevent confusion, we have designated teacher office hours based on subject. Each teacher will be available for office hours via google meet during their content designated time and all teachers will be available via Google Meet from 12:00-12:45 pm. See below:
8:00 - 8:40 — Health/PE; Fine Arts; Study Skills, Freshman Seminar
8:40 - 9:20 — Science
9:20 - 10:00— ELA (English)
10:00 - 10:40—Math
10:40 - 11:20—Social Studies
11:20 - 12:00— World Languages and CTE
12:00 - 12:45 —All LHS teachers open office hours for schedule conflicts
Please contact your teacher if you have specific questions related to their course.

Lost/Damaged Computer Devices
Lost/Damaged Textbooks
Lunch Debt
Parents/Guardians play a key role in monitoring not only their student's actions but also their fiscal responsibilities regarding lost/damaged issued devices (such as computers and textbooks) and/or food purchases made by your child in our school cafeteria. Payment can be made in the form of cash or check and should include your child's five-digit Student ID# (e.g., #12345).
