LCSD Limelight

Two weeks ago, a Dayton High School student experienced a medical emergency. In that critical moment, when every second mattered, three members of the Dayton High School community responded with incredible courage, skill, and composure. Their quick actions helped save a student’s life, and our district is proud to recognize their heroic response.

LCSD Board of Trustees members Kallie Day and Dawn Carson presented three staff members with an LCSD Recognition Coin in appreciation of their outstanding actions.
