FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK | | |
|
September 17, 2021
Greetings LC Tiger Students and Families,
I want to begin by sharing how well our students and staff are settling into the school year. We just completed our first full week of school, and our students are putting their best efforts on display, and our teachers are truly enjoying having our students back with us. Next week is our Homecoming week, and we have safe and engaging activities planned as we have had to work together to plan and adjust as we must follow COVID 19 safety protocols. The students have responded is a very positive manner and are grateful for the opportunity to be able to be together and celebrate next week. Unfortunately, we are not able to host or have a Homecoming Dance due to COVID 19.
I have a request of our students and families. Please monitor your student’s social media activity and how much time students are spending on social media and technology usage outside of the time needed to engage in school related work. We realize that the use of technology is an important part of our student’s lives and a way for them to connect with their friends, family, and connect and examine our world, but it should be used with wisdom and moderation. Thanks for our support, and our purpose with this request is to help support our students and their focus on school, learning, growing, and having fun!
I hope to see many of you at our events next week to help support our Tigers. The spirit and energy that has been exhibited by our students, parents, guardians, and fans has been phenomenal. Together, let’s continue to show our Tiger enthusiasm, spirit, and togetherness that has been a model for others to follow.
So proud to be a Tiger and serve as your principal,
Go Tigers!
Mr. Corley
Principal
“Every Tiger, Every Day”

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. | | | |

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.
