PRINCIPAL'S NOTE

Dear LPHS Families,

With the Holidays in full swing, I hope this message finds you rejuvenated and ready to enjoy this season amidst the hustle and bustle. This tends to be a stressful month for students as finals approach. We encourage students to get adequate sleep and to be intentional about how they balance their time so they can minimize stress and finish the semester strong. 

Do you know an incoming student who would make a great Ranger? This week, we begin our school tours for new families. Please spread the word to your friends and neighbors who would like to learn more about Ranger life. Tour information you can share with them can be found below. 

- Principal Jeff Zick
