FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK | | |

September 10, 2021
Happy Friday Tiger Students and Families,
What an exciting, energy filled first six days of school we have experienced together. Each day has presented opportunities for us to learn and growth collectively and provided a few moments where we have shared a smile or laughable experience with each other. Overall, these experiences have been positive and a great reminder of our “why.” We are here for our students and each other, and there is no other place we would prefer to be than back in our building.
Our students and staff are doing a remarkable job of wearing mask and social distancing as required by COVID 19 guidelines. The safety of our students and staff is our top priority, and we will continue to revisit our routines and procedures to assure that we are doing what is safe and best practices for everyone. I applaud our staff and students for their patience, grace, and flexibility as we have had to shift and adjust plans, but we continue to work together on strategies that may help us move ideas and events forward. It has not been easy, but the strength and perseverance of our “Tigers” will prevail in the long run. I have no doubt!
Our first days and week of school have been a testament to our character, belief, and work ethic. Students are in classes engaged in learning, teachers are enjoying building relationships with students and teaching, our athletic teams are out competing and off to a strong start to the season, and our performing arts programs are preparing for future performance opportunities. Much to celebrate!
Way to go “Tigers” and let’s keep our positive momentum going and our dreams and aspirations moving forward.
Grateful to serve as your principal,
Go Tigers!
Mr. Corley
Principal
“Every Tiger, Every Day”

Student and Parent/Visitor Parking | |
Parent/Visitor Parking: LC does not have designated visitor parking, so you can park at any of the metered spots across the street. For after-hours events, you can park for free in any of the parking lots under the freeway. The doors to the Commons building are handicap accessible.
Student Drop-off/Pick-Up: Before and after school, 4th Avenue in front of LC is a busy place with school buses and parents competing for limited space. In order to help alleviate congestion, we recommend that parents drop off and pick up students either on 5th Avenue, 3rd Avenue or a block east or west of LC on 4th Avenue. It is important to not park (even for a drop off) in the bus zones.
Student Parking: LC students can park in the two freeway lots (in front of the Field House and in front of the church to the east). Be sure to display your student parking permit to avoid getting a ticket in the student lots. Student parking permits can be purchased in the Business Office for $5. The lot directly in front of the main building and the parking garage are only for LC staff and are monitored for cars without staff permits.

AP/College Board Accounts | If you are enrolled in an Advanced Placement (AP) class, you will need to create or access your existing College Board account (this is only for students that have a class with "AP" in the course title). Your account will give you access to AP Classroom resources and access for ordering your AP exams (we will order exams later in September). This account is not connected to your school accounts, so you will need to save the login and password (LC teachers do not have access to your login info, so if you forgot your login info, you will need to recover it on the AP website). Click here to go to the College Board website to either make sure you can access your account from last year or to create a new one if you are taking your first AP class. | | | |
