Lanphier Life Skills Students Get a Boost Towards Workforce Readiness
Students from the life skills classrooms at Lanphier High School are gaining independence and preparing for future careers thanks to a revitalized program. Today, students picked up their bus passes from the Springfield Mass Transit District (SMTD) administrative center, which they will use to travel to various work sites across the city. SMTD offers free bus passes anyone (student or adult) with a differing ability.
At their host sites, students will gain valuable, real-world experience and develop essential skills that will help them successfully transition from school into the workforce. In addition to learning to travel independently, students in this program will learn how to shop, plan, budget, communicate, handle money, and fill orders, among many other valuable skills. This program provides hands-on learning opportunities that are crucial for their personal and professional growth.
The program is currently seeking additional local businesses to partner with. If your business is interested in regularly hosting Lanphier students and their teachers, please contact instructors Ms. Hawkins or Mr. Logsdon at 217-525-3080. They can also be reached by email at jhawkins@sps186.org or rlogsdon@sps186.org.

Hello Lanphier Families! Please see the communication below from Principal Miller regarding eligibility.
Get your Littles signed up for this awesome opportunity!
Don't forget! Tomorrow is Lanphier Open House!
Parents and Students,
As a reminder, locker expectations were reviewed with all students during the discipline meeting on August 20, 2025. To keep hallways safe and minimize disruptions during the school day, students may access their lockers only during the following times:
➡️ Morning: 8:15 a.m. – 8:24 a.m.
➡️ Before Lunch
➡️ After Lunch
➡️ End of the School Day (after the final bell)
We ask that students plan ahead and use their lockers only during these scheduled times. This routine helps reduce hallway traffic, ensures a smoother school day, and allows teachers and students to stay focused on learning.
Thank you for your support in helping us maintain a safe and organized environment for our students.
Go Lions! 🦁
Stay Healthy Lions!🦁
Hello Lanphier Families,
Today was a wonderful day at LHS, and we appreciate your continued support in fostering a positive school environment.
As we move forward, I kindly remind you to ensure that students adhere to the dress code and cell phone policy. My staff and I are eager to share the great things your student is accomplishing both academically and socially. During lunch, please remind your child that they should remain in approved designated areas (not roaming), and take responsibility for cleaning up after themselves.
We also invite you to complete the district's volunteer paperwork if you're interested in getting involved at LHS!
We look forward to seeing your student tomorrow, dressed appropriately, and ready to engage in a productive day, with their phones off and away.
Thank you for your cooperation!
Respectfully,
Principal Miller
