Attention Cross Country runners: We will have a meeting on Thursday, 9/24 at 3:30 pm outside by the high school commons to discuss the remainder of our season. As always, wear a mask and social distance as you arrive. Go Greyhounds!
Hello. With the decision of the St. Clair County Health Department and Regional Office of Education to allow schools to return to in person instruction based on local determination, we are pleased to announce that LCUSD9 will begin our Blended Return to Learn Model. This will be an “A” & “B” day, 50% capacity model that will allow for social distancing. Wearing a mask and social distancing will allow our students and staff a safe return to school. Please visit our district web site for more schedule information on the blended model. Full remote will also be offered for those families still wanting that option. We will begin next Thursday, September 24 with our “A” group and then our “B” group on Friday, September 25. After that our weekly schedule will be A, A, Remote Day for all, B, B. We will continue to work towards full inclusion. We know the importance of students being in school and appreciate your cooperation.
In honor of Patriot Day on September 11, we bring you our character word of the month—Patriotism. Here’s a link to our Flipgrid board https://Flipgrid.com/77319177

Juniors will NOT complete the FAFSA until October 1 of 2021 but you can gather information now to help you prepare. You can start taking virtual and in-person (for schools that have them) college visits to help you decide on a college.
