LHS Parent Newsletter: Friday, January 17, 2025
Reminders and Updates from Dr. Bonneau
Cold Weather: Next week we will have some truly cold weather. Please make sure your student brings a coat to school with them. (Especially if they ride a bus and may have to wait outside.)
Parent ID/Entering the building: Anyone entering the building must show identification at the front door to be buzzed in. Photos and copies of IDs will not be accepted. Please bring your actual identification card with you to the door.
Advisory: Beginning in January, all students will have an Advisory class period. It will show as 9th block, but it will actually be from 10:35-10:55. This may be a teacher the student already has, but it may not be. Attendance will be take in Advisory. All students are required to attend Advisory. Students with afternoon Ben Barber will only attend Advisory on their NON-Ben Barber days. Students with morning Ben Barber should be IN advisory by 10:35 or they are tardy.
Morning Entry: We are having more and more students not removing the items from their bags before going through Evolv. This causes the search lines to back up and makes them late to class. Beginning in January, students need to arrive earlier to ensure they have time to get into the building in time for class. We need them to remove the items from their bags that may flag the Evolv machine. No passes will be written for students that come in right before the tardy bell and are late to class.
Lockers: Historically, students have not wanted to have lockers issued to them on campus. With the changes in the building entry procedures, I believe more students may benefit from a locker on campus. If your student would like a locker for the 2nd semester, please complete THIS FORM.
Backpack Cleanout: Students, it's time for a backpack cleanout! Please take time to cleanout your backpack and remove anything you don't NEED for the school day. (Including old food and candy wrappers.)

“Become a Hero of the Hallways!”
Calling all dads and positive male role models! Legacy High School needs YOU to be the eyes, ears, and heart of our school for just one day a month or even a week. Did you know that 1 in 4 children in the U.S. grow up without a father figure at home? Kids without strong male role models are more likely to struggle academically, face behavioral issues, and are statistically more likely to drop out of school. Additionally, 85% of youth in prison grew up in a fatherless home, and 80% of school shooters come from similar backgrounds.
By volunteering a half or full day of your time, you can make a profound difference in the lives of our students. If just five of us commit to the same day each week, we could fill this calendar completely! Whether you can give time once a week or once a month, your presence can help create a positive and supportive environment for our students.
For any questions, please call or text Chad Lovell at 817.422.6122. Let’s step up and be the change our kids need! To sign up, please go to the following link
