Baccalaureate
Baccalaureate is a student-planned and directed program for graduating seniors to reflect, share memories, and give gratitude as they leave LT and journey beyond high school. A variety of readings, song, dance, and personal reflections are presented in this program. This year's program will return to the Reber Center on Sunday, May 15, starting at 2:00pm. All graduating seniors, family, and friends are invited to watch.

Lyonspalooza Senior Send-Off
Lyonspalooza will feature a variety of carnival games, a professional DJ, and a food truck festival. The event will take place outdoors by the NC parking lot on Thursday, May 19, from 11am - 2pm.

Tickets will be $25 per person. Tickets will be on sale via Revtrak April 18 through April 25. This event will only occur if ticket sales can support the event. It will be canceled, with students being issued full refunds, in the event that ticket sales do not cover the cost of the event. The event will be canceled in the event of inclement weather (with full refund).  

Senior Awards Night
The Senior Honors is special in that it is a recognition of seniors by their school, their peers, and their community. Seniors who have received significant academic, athletic, activity, and scholarship awards will be recognized. Award winner’s family will be notified by mail that their student will be honored at the assembly, but the actual award will not be disclosed until that day. This year, the Senior Honors ceremony will be held the evening of Thursday, May 19, at 7:00pm in the Reber Center.

Senior Prom
Prom returns to Navy Pier this year on Sunday, May 22, from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m.! Formal attire is required - NO t-shirts, jeans or shorts. One ticket per person is required. All tickets are $135 and will be on sale April 18 – April 25 at www.lths.net/Prom or outside the Cafeteria. All students attending Prom must ride the school-provided deluxe coach buses to and from Navy Pier. Students must be at South Campus to board buses no later than 4:30pm. All school rules apply to Prom, and all school sanctions for violation of those rules may be used, including exclusion from participation in the Commencement exercise. All LT students must turn in a Prom Permission Slip when purchasing tickets. For non-LT guests, LT students must turn in a completed Guest Permission Form (available online at www.lths.net/Prom) when purchasing their ticket for Prom. Extra permission forms will be available online at www.lths.net/Prom and in the Bookstore.

Post-Prom Celebration
Each year, our Parent-Teacher Council sponsors a Post-Prom cruise on Lake Michigan to ensure a safe celebration for our graduates. Students enjoy three levels of dancing, full food buffets, and an open-air deck for viewing the city lights. Students choosing to attend the Post-Prom will return to LTHS on luxury coach buses at approximately 1:30am. Formal attire is appropriate. Shoes must be worn at all times on the Odyssey and The Spirit of Chicago. No bags will be allowed on the buses. Since this event is not school-funded, the Post-Prom Committee encourages parental support. Without LTHS parental support, this alcohol-free event would not be possible. Tickets for this event are $50 each and will be on sale April 18 – April 25 at www.lths.net/Prom or outside the Cafeteria.
