If you have not picked up your Chromebook yet, you will be called to the West Gym today to pick it up. If you go to a Focus Program or TCA, you can stop in any time. Please be sure to have your ID or your student number. 

LifeTouch will be here today in the West Gym to finish taking Yearbook and ID photos. Students will be dismissed over sound throughout the day to go get pictures taken. 

Grab and Go Breakfasts are available from 7:30 am until 8 am. in the math office hallway between north and south buildings or by the health office room 110.  The cost is only $1.50 per meal with typically two entree options. You also can have milk and juice. A link to the Breakfast and Lunch menus is located on the LHS Daily News tab on The Advocate Online website at LHSAdvocate.com

Have you seen family or community members running local road races, 5Ks, or half-marathons and thought that you would want to give running a try? Do you want to be part of a team that doesn’t make any cuts and where everyone gets to compete every week? Do you really like to eat spaghetti? Well, if you could answer “yes” to any of those questions, then cross-country might be the right sport for you. Any athletes still interested in running cross-country this year should see Coach Rettig, Coach Bax, or Coach Manhart about becoming a member of the team as soon as possible.

Anyone from last year’s HOSA, that’s Club Days, After School, & our travel experiences, check your email today for information regarding Leadership opportunities for this year & application information.  Applications are due Monday at 3pm! See Mrs. Beck in S133 or Margaux Cruz with questions.

Lincoln High is now a Community Learning Center.
