Junior and senior high school students dress up days next week! Let’s celebrate the end of the semester and the upcoming holiday break!


Jrh and HS students, don’t forget to bring some holiday cheer next week. Join in the fun each day with your festive holiday gear!


Due to our JH girls basketball team being quarantined, we must cancel the following games on their schedule:
Tonight's game, Friday's game and Monday's home game. We plan on resuming practice on Tuesday and playing their last home game on Thursday, which will also be 8th grade night and we will honor our only 8th grade girls basketball player, Takira Johnson before the game

HS Boys Basketball Game at Christ Our Rock this Saturday Dec 11th has been canceled due to Christ Our Rock's boys basketball team being put into quarantine due to multiple positive cases. HS Boys will practice from 8:00-10:00 Saturday morning.

First Semester Finals will take place December 15-17. If you wish to give permission for your child to be absent when he/she is not testing, please fill out the form below by noon on December 13th. Students will still need to sign in when they return to the building for an exam, but will not need to sign out when they leave. Students are not to leave campus under any circumstances if they are using school transportation to get home. If you have multiple students attending LHS, please fill this out for each student.

Athletic Schedule changes for today
JH girls basketball practice is canceled tonight due to a positive Covid case, the schedule for the rest of the week will be determined ASAP.
HS boys basketball practice will now go from 3:30-5:30 in the hs gym since the concert is postponed tonight
HS girls basketball practice will be from 3:30-5:30 in the grade school gym
JH boys basketball game at Aviston at 7:00 (bus 6:10) is still on for tonight

Unfortunately, with several new Covid cases in the district and working with the health department’s recommendation to mitigate: we will reschedule our Christmas Concert that was originally scheduled for tonight. As you are aware dealing with Covid related issues has made school, sports and activities very fluid. We will continue to monitor and work with the health department for any addition mitigations, postponements and/or cancellations. Our goal is to meditate what we need to in order to keep our school doors open. Currently this is the only Postponement at this time. School WILL be in session as normal.
Stay safe,
Mr. Keeney
