June 10, 2022
Greetings Tiger Students and Families,
Congratulations to our seniors, the class of 2022, as you prepare to walk the stage this Sunday. You have worked so hard and persevered through so much, and you deserve the recognition and celebration that awaits you! I have been so proud and humble while serving as your principal this year, and you all made my first year one of the most memorable experiences of my educational career. Thank you for being such a caring, enthusiastic, thoughtful, and goal-oriented group of young adults. Our future is in great hands because of you. Continue to access all the opportunities that are available to you and continue to help make our community and society a better place for everyone. I wish you nothing but the best!
It has been such a joy to gather and celebrate all our Tigers during our Move Up con on Thursday. It has been three years since we have had this event, and it went very well thanks to our staff who worked very hard to put it together, our student leadership and their energy and enthusiasm that focused on the acknowledging all students, and our supportive parents and families who do so much behind the scenes to assure our success. The senior barbeque capped off the con, and our students and staff enjoyed interacting together, signing yearbooks, and sharing laughs and memories that will last a lifetime. All part of what the high school experience should look and feel like for every student and staff member!
I hope to see you at our graduation ceremony this Sunday at 3:30 p.m. at the Podium. It will be memorable and joyful experience for our seniors and their families and friends.
To our ninth through eleventh grade students, remain focused on finishing the year strong, strive to improve until the very last day, and continue meeting our schoolwide academic and behavior expectations. You got this and you have been doing a remarkable job!
Enjoy your weekend,
Mr. Ivan Corley
Principal

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) opened October 1. It is highly recommended that all LC Seniors file the FAFSA - it is FREE to file. It is the first step in getting financial aid -- including grants, scholarships, work study, and loans - from any college, technical school, or career training program. Go to to www.fafsa.gov for more information.
In order to file the FAFSA, both the parent and student must first create FSA IDs. We strongly encourage you to create your FSA ID now because it takes approximately 1-3 days for the FSA ID to be verified and ready to be used. Get yours today! Learn more about FAFSA at 101: FAFSA

Hey Tigers…remember the Tiger Closet is open every Friday morning from 7:30am-8:00am. This is a great place for Tigers helping Tigers with clothing donations or basic daily needs. Please, if need something, don’t hesitate to stop by on Friday mornings or talk with your counselor and they can help you out as well.
If you are wanting to help with donating items, we are really looking for some hoodies. Our Tigers love to where them and they always go really fast. You can contact Steve Bouldin if you have any questions.

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.
