-It’s that time of year! We will be holding our United Way campaign through the end of the day TODAY
The United Way is a local initiative that raises funds and distributes them to organizations and charities in the community that improve everyone's quality of life.
Additionally, there will be donation jars in the main lobby where students can contribute spare change to tape one of our administrators to the wall as part of our United Way campaign. The chosen administrator will be announced at our United Way celebration assembly TODAY.
All the change collected during the United Way campaign will be donated to the United Way. Historically, LHS has raised more money than both Southeast High School and Springfield High School. Last year, we raised $4,572.09, and it is our goal to raise even more this year.
Also, in celebration of our United Way campaign and the kick-off to Winter Sports Season, we continue our Spirit Week this week featuring the themes that students voted for!

-Now for a moment of silence.
-Please Rise for the Pledge of Allegiance.
"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
And it is time for today’s welcoming ritual. Please take a moment to discuss your response with your class: Today is decades day! When we think of the 60’s we think of tie dye and peace signs, the 70’s - the disco look, the 80’s - neon colors, and the 90’s - the grunge look. What is one thing, 30 years from now, that you think your generation will be remembered for when it comes to “style” or “fashion?”
Have a great day lions!
