PLANNING IN PROCESS FOR NEXT SCHOOL YEAR
|
We are currently reviewing this latest guidance, interpreting its recommendations and requirements, and determining how it will impact school operations in the fall. LTHS staff and administrators are meeting regularly throughout the summer to review potential plans and procedures, identify student and staff needs, and brainstorm a variety of available options for the 2020-21 school year. While we have not made any final decisions regarding the fall semester, we are developing a plan that will allow students and staff to return to our campuses. Please know all plans will emphasize the ISBE/IDPH recommendations and requirements, prioritize student/staff health and safety, and maximize opportunities for student learning.
Be help us plan for the upcoming school year by participating in the
family survey
. All surveys must be completed by July 8.

Thank you to everyone who dropped off textbooks and other items over the past several weeks. If you still have textbooks to drop off, please do so as soon as possible. There is a large bin outside of each campus main door for you to quickly drop any and all items into. Drop offs can be made at either campus regardless of grade level.

PAY ONLINE FOR UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR
|
In an effort to minimize long lines and large groups of students and staff at Book/ID Pick-Up, we encourage all families to pay school fees online via credit cards and echecks. The ability to make a payment during Book Pick-Up will be very limited. If you are not comfortable with online pay, please send in a check made payable to LTHS and mail to the LTHS Business Office, 100 S. Brainard Ave., LaGrange, IL 60525. The deadline for payment has been extended to July 15.
To pay for course-related materials, including consumable items such as workbooks and short novels, plus gym uniforms, locks, yearbooks and a Corral pass, simply log on
through Infinite Campus and pay
. If you cannot remember your Infinite Campus username and/or password, contact
Belinda Salutric
708/588-7433 - Monday-Friday (8am-noon or 6pm-8pm).
While Book/ID Pick-Up was originally scheduled for August 6, 7 and 10, a new format, with pre-scheduled pick-up times is being finalized. Families will be notified of schedules and specifics in the coming weeks, but in the meantime, please pay online to streamline the process.

REGISTER SOON FOR UPCOMING TEST DATES

LT plans to administer three tests this fall with extra precautionary steps to social distance and adhere to CDC guidelines. Students and staff will be screened for COVID-19 symptoms, wear masks, and be required to sit six feet from one another. The demand for the next several tests will be very high, as many current seniors do not yet have a valid ACT or SAT score.
Be sure to register as soon as possible for one of the following test dates.
- ACT Test date: September 12, 2020 - register by August 14
- SAT Test date: September 26, 2020 - register by August 26
