All classroom doors will be locked briefly at the start of class periods 3-7 as part of Lakewood’s new tardy sweep program. Students who arrive late must scan their Minga pass at a kiosk (under the 6K) or front gate. This program is designed to support student success, reduce classroom disruptions, and promote the importance of punctuality and consistent attendance for all students.

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.
