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.

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.
