Good evening. Tomorrow morning, we will begin using our automated attendance alert system. If your child is marked with an unverified absence, you will receive a call and a text message asking that you contact the school to verify your child's absence. Attendance verification serves many important purposes including notifying guardians if a child is missing from school, and accounting for the location of students in and out of the buildings in case of an emergency. Thank you for your help in keeping our students safe!

Great news! Big Smiles Dentist will be at Lathrop High School on December 10.
Best of all, in most cases there is no cost to you if your child is insured with Medicaid/CHIP! Private insurance and affordable self-pay options are also available.
Easy & Convenient
Having your child seen by the dentist at school saves you valuable time. Top quality care is provided by local, licensed dentists in the familiar surroundings of your child’s school. Dental care includes a complete exam, x-rays, cleaning, fluoride, and sealants when necessary, and in some cases, restorative care such as fillings.
Keep Your Child Healthy
Children who see a dentist regularly may have fewer health issues like:
* Early tooth loss due to dental decay
* Gum disease
* Heart disease
* Impaired speech development
Sign up today!
Look for a permission form from school, ask your school nurse, or sign up online now.

Good afternoon LHS parents.
I wanted to let you know about a t-shirt we are offering our students and anyone else that might be interested in purchasing. As some of you know, every Wednesday we have a Character development session with our students, and the program we use is Character Strong. I thought it would be cool if a lot of our kids got a Lathrop Mules Character Strong shirt and everyone wore them on Wednesdays. Anyway, if you would like to order a shirt for your student or anyone else, the link is below. The order deadline will be 11/15/24 at noon. Thanks, Mr. Bowers
Students,
Below is the link to the online store to purchase a Lathrop Mules Character Strong t-shirt or sweatshirt. The order deadline will be at noon on Friday, November 15th. I thought it would be pretty cool if a lot of kids got one and we all wore them on Character Strong Wednesdays.
