LCHS Friday Focus

Happy Friday! This edition of the Friday Focus will cover the next couple of weeks as I won't be sending one out next week. So I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving and break. Safe travels to everyone who has to hit the road.  We have several students who are at the All-State Music Festival in Ames today and Saturday. We wish them luck in the performance on Saturday.  We are getting into the Winter sports season now, so if you haven't reminded students about the make-up work policy, this would be a good time to do it. Midterm will be on November 30 for 2nd quarter. Beth and Amy will be mailing home the midterms that day, please have grades updated by 8:00 am. Barry and Nicki will be getting into classrooms to talk to the students about registration for next year. We will start having students register in the next couple of weeks. Once we get the students request, we will meet to go over sections. Have a great weekend! Mark Staff News Mr. Moss will be back M...

Happy Friday! As we draw another week to a close, we are getting closer and closer to Thanksgiving Break. This time will go by fast, so I wanted to make sure everyone was aware that midterm is on November 30th. Students should have 1st quarter incompletes made up unless circumstances dictate they get more time. Please email Mr. Utesch or myself the updated letter grade and percentage so we can change it in historical grades in PowerSchool. Next week we have district in-service on Wednesday. Your CIA members in charge of your group will send out instructions.  If you are not doing anything tonight or tomorrow night, come and check out the musical.

Some groups had students make presentations to their advisory group. A thank you goes out to ...

Happy Friday! We are now a few days in November. This is the time of year that seems to really move, 2 1/2 weeks to Thanksgiving and then another 4 weeks until Christmas break. We have our extra hour meeting on Wednesday. You will continue working on your curriculum that goes along with the district pd days.  With the next two months being a little hectic with vacations this causes our PD days to be in a different pattern, please note that our 2nd early morning meeting in November is on November 30th. Our December days will be the week before and after the district PD days.  I have had a few more PASS plans turned into me. Remember if a student is at-risk these need to be done. Midterm for 2nd quarter is November 30th. All PASS Plans should be completed by this date at the latest. The guidance office is getting ready for registration for next year. They will be speaking to grades 8-11 in the next couple of weeks. We have added few new classes for next year, Mr. Starr ...
