Hello Lodi High School Community,

As we begin another week in November, we enter a season of gratitude, reflection, and continued growth. With the holiday season approaching, I encourage our students to remain focused on their academics, attend school regularly, and continue making positive choices both inside and outside the classroom.

This past Thursday, we celebrated 241 students at our annual Academic Block L Awards Ceremony! It was great to see so many students and families in attendance recognizing the academic achievements of our students. These accomplishments reflect the hard work and dedication of our students, the support of their families, and the continued commitment of our teachers and staff.

A special thank you to our Block L Committee, custodial staff, and everyone who helped make the evening a success. Congratulations to all 241 students!

Reminder – This Week's Schedule

In observance of Veterans Day, there will be no school on Wednesday, November 11. As a result, students will follow a regular seven-period schedule (Periods 1–7) on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Please see link: https://tinyurl.com/79cuc58x

As we recognize Veterans Day, I also want to extend our appreciation to the veterans within our school community and all those who have served our country. We thank you for your service and sacrifice.

Go Flames! 🔥

Please take advantage of one of these opportunities to receive support and get your questions answered as you complete the financial aid application process. If you have any questions, please reach out to the College and Career Technician at your school.

As Lodi USD continues to move towards our goal of clear, timely, and transparent communication, we want to ensure that our families are receiving communication with ease. You should already be receiving communication through email and text - if you're not, please reach out to our school's office to let us know. The next step with staying connected is downloading the ParentSquare app! Available for both iPhones and Androids, downloading the app ensures instant access to updates, and provides an easy way to interact with posts, direct messages, forms, and more. Download the free app by following the link in the button below.

If you need help accessing ParentSquare, please reach out to communications@lodiusd.net.

Attendance

Regular and punctual attendance is essential to student success. Families are encouraged to help ensure that students arrive on time each day, attend every class, and come prepared to learn.

Student Identification Cards

For safety and identification purposes, all students are required to wear their school-issued identification card on their lanyard while on campus. Student IDs must be visible and should not be kept in a backpack, pocket, or phone case. We appreciate the support of our families in reinforcing this expectation with their students.

ParentSquare

ParentSquare will serve as our primary communication platform. Information regarding school events, schedules, academic programs, and other important updates will be shared through ParentSquare. Please check the platform regularly and ensure that your contact information is current. https://www.lodiusd.net/families/parentsquare

📣 Google Classroom Guardian Emails Now Synced with Aeries

You may have already noticed—guardian email invitations in Google Classroom are now automatically synced with the Aeries database.

Here’s what you need to know:

• Only guardians listed as Educational Rights Holders in Aeries are invited to receive weekly email summaries from Google Classroom.
• Manual guardian entries are no longer allowed. The list is fully controlled by the Aeries sync and updates nightly.
• If a guardian isn’t receiving the invitation, please direct them to contact the school office to update their information in Aeries.
• Guardians who wish to stop receiving emails can simply delete the invitation.
  Please do not advise them to click “unsubscribe,” as that will not stop Google from resending the invitation.
• Guardian summaries include:
• Missing work
• Upcoming work
• Recent announcements, assignments, and questions
• A preview link to Google Classroom
• Note: Grades, comments, and student attachments are not included.
