Tribe Tours will provide every student who enrolls at LCHS a personal tour of the school with an FCCLA representative. FCCLA looks forward to serving their newest members of the tribe this school year.

The impacts of the pandemic on manufacturing didn't spare the textbook industry. LCSS went through the textbook review and adoption process last school year for our Social Studies textbooks at LCHS. Due to manufacturing issues, the available editions are different than the editions we reviewed. Because of this, we are opening up the two-week review process for the following three textbooks: World History, American Government, and US History. These three textbooks will be on display for public review starting today (August 20th) through Thursday, September 3rd. To review these textbooks and provide input to our LCSS Curriculum Department, please visit the LC District Office between the hours of 8:00 AM and 4:30 PM.
