Highlights/Celebrations
We are thrilled to welcome everyone to a brand-new school year! Whether you're joining us as a new student, staff member, incoming freshman or simply returning from the well needed summer break, we are excited to have you as part of our Titan community. We will be kicking off this year with our first ever Activity Newsletter. Our goal is to send out monthly information to staff, students and our community involving all things activities here at LHS!
A special welcome goes out to our new students and staff- we're so glad you're here and can't wait for you to become part of what makes our school such a vibrant and supportive place to learn and grow.
To our returning teachers and students, welcome back! We hope your summer was restful and rejuvenating. We look forward to building on last year's successes and creating even more memorable moments.
Here's to a year filled with learning, connection, and new opportunities. Let's make it a great one-together!
Regards,
Kristen Shirk, Activities Director.
