LOHS Families,


In response to the passing of one of our Dragons, we want to be sure if your student or your family need any additional external support, LOCS has partnered with Care Solace, a service to connect you with professional counselors. Contact information is available at lakeorionschools.org/resources/care-solace.


Now more than ever, we need to Protect the Thunder and take care of one another.

Sincerely,


Rosa Everitt

LOHS Staff Appreciation week is May 6-10

The LOHS Parent Group is collecting certain items to be used throughout the week of May 6-10 to help show our appreciation to the LOHS teachers and staff. Our theme for the week is "The Year of the Dragon," which symbolizes strength, wisdom, health and good luck. Some of the fun days we have planned are a staff breakfast to start their day off healthy, a "Fill your Cup" day to give the staff strength, and a "Dragon Trivia" day to bring them good luck.


Please see below for ways that you can help by donating drinks, treats and supplies.

Free Tutoring Free Tutoring

Dear LOHS Parents,

Lake Orion High School is extremely excited to announce a continuation of our free tutoring program. This program will allow your child to connect directly with LOHS staff in specific content areas (math, science, social studies, etc.) outside of normal school hours. These tutoring sessions are one hour and can take place either in person or virtually through Microsoft Teams (this is decided between the tutor and the student(s) in the group). This tutoring is intended as remediation as opposed to homework help; however, homework is often utilized to teach skills. As we do not have an inexhaustible number of tutors available, this program is on a first come, first serve basis.

To sign up your child, please fill out this form.

If you have additional questions, please contact Cathy Srock at Catherine.Srock@LOk12.org.

Service opportunities are emailed to students the first week of each month with the events for that specific month. This list can also be found on the LOHS Service Learning page, at the bottom.
