Tech Tip for the week.
💡 Did You Know?
Did you know that restarting your iPad once a week can help keep it running smoothly? A regular restart clears out memory, stops background processes, and ensures apps work correctly. Try it out and enjoy a better performance!
🔄 How to Restart Your iPad
1. Press and hold the top button and volume button until the power-off slider appears.
2. Drag the slider, then wait for your iPad to turn off.
3. Once off, press and hold the top button again until the Apple logo appears.
Please complete the application for free and reduced meals.

Fighting Farmer Fans,
This is just a reminder that all students must have their current campus ID to attend games and events at LHS and you may not enter with a bag or backpack! This remains the case for the Powder Puff Game AND Spring Football Game. There is no arguing about this at the entrance of the event…you must have your current ID, not a temporary ID, or you will not be permitted to attend. Also, you must leave campus within 20 minutes of the end of any game or event. You may not hang around waiting for a ride.
Go Farmers!
Thank you,
Jim Baker
Principal
Lewisville High School
