CA Education Code § 51520 prohibits outside organizations from soliciting pupils on school property during school hours, as well as one hour before and one hour after school. Education Code § 51521 requires that all organizations that conduct fundraising to benefit clubs, schools, students or the district at the K-12 level have prior approval from the school district’s governing board.
Individual staff or students may not conduct their own fundraising on campus for personal use. State law prohibits any solicitation—sales or other requests for money—of students on campus except by district-controlled programs, such as the Cafeteria, Student Store, Student Clubs, Parent Booster Clubs, or other board-approved groups. Individual students, teachers and other employees do not fall into these categories. An individual’s fundraising would be taxable income to that individual, reportable to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and Franchise Tax Board. Student body groups may participate in the district’s special income tax exempt status, but individuals may not.

This Canvas tile has been created to provide students with easy access to important resources, tools, and support all in one place. Our goal is to simplify the process of finding what you need, when you need it, so you can stay organized, informed, and focused on your success. Be sure to check back regularly as resources may be updated throughout the year.
A Safe & Secure Campus
In an effort to maintain a safe and secure campus, the Lakewood High School Administration together with LBUSD School Safety, conduct random searches of our students. Thank you for your continued support in keeping Lakewood a safe place.

LBCC Student Art Show Displaying Art by LHS Alum
This semester's LBCC Student Art Show is currently on view at our neighboring Liberal Arts Campus. I went to visit the other day to tour it and see the work of our LHS alum, Arthur Martins! His painting, Acauã, which was originally shown at last years' JCC LBUSD District Art Show is on view with some new updates and a new statement as well as some newly created jewelry pieces he made this year. He has also taken on a paid studio position working in the ceramics lab after being introduced to the professor and space from our class fieldtrips in the past years.
Additionally, one of our college aides and previous Lakewood students, Poetuh, has a piece on view as well. Please go check out the show for many other amazing works and to keep cheering on our Lakewood Alumni and staff!

A big shoutout to everyone who participated in this weekend’s 5K/10K in the City of Lakewood! Our students supported the event by completing service-learning hours while handing out water to participants. Congratulations to Brianna Sanchez and Irving Ventura for placing in their age groups. Special thanks to Mrs. Torres, Mrs. McDaniel, Mrs. Kelly, Christina DeLeon, and everyone else who proudly represented Lancer Nation!
Dress Code Policy
At our school, we encourage students to dress for academic success by following a respectful and appropriate dress code. Clothes should cover all undergarments, with no sagging bottoms. To maintain a professional environment, bare stomachs, shoulders, and backs are not allowed, and ski masks should not be worn. On Thursdays, students can show college spirit, while Fridays are encouraged for LHS Spirit Day. Clothing promoting alcohol, drugs, weapons, profanity, or sexual content is prohibited, as are summer or weekend clothes.
The administration reserves the right to request students change or call home if their clothing is deemed inappropriate.
