Packets will be available this Friday, March 15th, do not wait until the last minute to get these filled out! If you have any questions please reach out to Coach Haley for poms, or Coach Kelsey for cheer."

-Don’t forget that we are recognizing student efforts in making positive behavioral choices and for being on time to all classes and to school. Each week, any student that was referral free and tardy free for the previous week will be entered into the drawing and FOUR student names will be drawn. The winners will be announced and they will come down to the atrium to choose a gift card. We want to ensure that we are making Lanphier a positive, safe, and productive place for all students to learn and thrive so we want to make sure we recognize the efforts of students that are contributing to that goal! Each Monday, every student starts with a clean slate, so if you hit a bump the week before, you will get another chance at the start of each week. We would like to give a shout to Coach Blake Turner and the LHS Football Boosters for providing us with these rewards and encouraging Lanphier students to make safe and positive choices while here at LHS and in the local Springfield community.

-"It is another day of Women's History Month! Each day of the month, we are honoring a woman who is making history as a part of the Lanphier Staff and supplying a quote from an inspirational woman! 

Today we honor Ms. Fabiye of the English and Student Support Services Departments! Ms. Fabiye has been with LHS for 8 years!! She enjoys having the opportunity to work with educators with various years of experiences and meeting students when they first get to LHS and seeing how they mature over the course of their high school experience! Two women that inspire Ms. Fabiye are Maya Angelou and Jackie Joyner Kersee!! If you see Ms. Fabiye today, thank her for being an amazing advocate for our community, a strong woman, and the sweetest person you could ever meet.

Today's Women's History Quote is: 

"It's better to look ahead and prepare than to look back and regret." - Jackie Joyner Kersee

-Friday was SEL, Social and Emotional Learning Day! We reviewed what SEL is and the 5 core skills of SEL, which are: self-awareness, social-awareness, self management, responsible decision making, and relationship skills. Each day this week, we will focus on one of the 5 core SEL skills. Today’s focus is Self Awareness! As a reminder, self-awareness means that you recognize and understand your own thoughts, emotions, feelings, and behaviors. Your emotions can affect how you act, how you think, how  you feel, and how you respond to others. Please join us right after school today at the south end of the atrium to enjoy a viewing of the movie, “Inside Out.” We will also have popcorn! 

-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."

Have a great day Lions!
