11th and 12th grade parents,
Tomorrow, 4/9/24, is going to be a little different at LHS. We have 41 juniors/seniors signed up to take the ACT tomorrow morning, but the rest of the junior and senior students will be doing some type of community service for hours 1st through 4th hour. Some of the projects will include, trash pick up around the school, A Hwy, Valley Street, and Park Street. Other projects will include painting fences at the fairgrounds south of town, painting Mule Shoes on the street on Oak Street (the main street of town), organizing the clothes closet at the middle school, and cleaning the high school bleachers. This is our way to give back to the community for always supporting our awesome school district! Students will be transported via a school bus to their assigned location.
Click the link for more information regarding the "Mules Give Back" community project for tomorrow. https://5il.co/2i3g3
In addition, I will be sharing the rosters for each community service project with the students via their school email. Remind them to dress for outside weather. We will be supplying rubber gloves, trash bags, safety vests, etc... If you have any questions, feel free to email Mr. Bowers and/or Mrs. Rupert. Thank you.
Mr. Bowers

Don’t forget about the Blood Drive tomorrow, 2-6 pm at LHS. Sponsored by the LHS NHS! Did you know the Community Blood Center must collect almost 600 units of blood daily to meet the needs of area hospital patients? As there is no substitute for blood, we rely on volunteer donors like you to supply the life-saving blood and blood components. We hope you will join us in our efforts to provide what could be a gift of life for someone. Help by sharing this information and/or make an appointment: https://donate.savealifenow.org/donor/schedules/drive_schedule/80691
The group code for our event is CBIL.
