-The Peace Room is available here at Lanphier High School to support all students. The Peace Room is a safe space focused on students' mental health and a space to talk confidentially with a Memorial Behavioral Health clinician for in-the-moment emotional support or even to help with mediation between students. Students may seek help for potential issues like: struggles with friends, family or significant others, school pressures like academics or athletics, bullying, social media challenges, anxiety, depression or stress, prejudice, racism or sexism, and/or for the well-being of peers. If you feel as though you need support from Ms. Jocelyn, our Peace Room clinician, please ask a staff member or go to the Global Canvas announcements and click on the link and fill out the form to go to the Peace Room and the clinician will get with you during the school day.

-We look forward to seeing our students and staff at our home football games! But, we want to remind you of the code of conduct. The Code of Conduct and the guidelines of the student handbook apply to all students while on District 186 property, adjacent property or engaged in school-sponsored activities. Any misconduct before, during or after the game will be handled by the administration at the student’s school and will result in consequences. Please note that students who are suspended and/or expelled are not permitted to attend school events, including games. If a suspended or expelled student purchases a ticket and is admitted by mistake, they will be required to leave, and no refunds will be issued. All spectators are expected to remain seated during games. Anyone found standing or roaming for an extended period of time will be asked to sit in the stands, failure to comply will result in being removed from the stadium. Also failing to abide by the football stadium expectations may result in you being escorted from the stadium. If you are escorted from the stadium you will not be allowed to return to future games. No unaccompanied minors will be allowed entry into games. All K-8th grade students should be with an adult who is responsible for their actions and monitors their movement during the games. They should be sitting watching the games and limit walking around unless using the restroom or visiting the concession stand. Students can not attend without an adult - they will not be allowed entry. Football games will conclude around 9:15 p.m., announcements will be made for students to call for their ride at the start of 4th quarter at every game. Please make sure your ride, if needed, is at the stadium to pick you up at that time. We want to cheer on our teams, have great District 186 spirit and have a good time. Thank you for assisting the Administration and the Springfield Police Department in this manner.
