This morning, LMHS recognized staff members, community members, and friends and family members of staff and students that are veterans by viewing a slideshow that honors the men and women that served for our country.

Thank you, to all of our Veteran's for their service to our country.

The counselor will be bringing all necessary packets and applications to complete with students at the time of their meeting. Students will receive an acceptance letter within a week of this event.
All students who are interested in participating should visit Guidance to sign up by Monday, December 2nd. Please reach out with any questions.
College Planning for Seniors
Congratulations to all students who have submitted college applications! Students should update Naviance to indicate their acceptances when they begin to receive decisions from schools.
Students are also invited to visit the Guidance Office to create a college flag to add to our bulletin board of college acceptances.
All seniors who are working on college applications must meet with their counselor at least two weeks before their first deadline. This is necessary to ensure that all components of their application will be ready to submit on time. Students are encouraged to visit the guidance office with any questions throughout their college application process.
