8/12/22 – WEEKLY UPDATE from the JH-HS
Good afternoon Lennox JH-HS Students, Parents and Guardians:
The 2022-23 School year is only a few weeks away. We hope you have enjoyed your summer break!
On Friday afternoons during the school year, I will send out an email with details about the upcoming week at the Junior High and High School. There are a few items I would like to highlight prior to the school year.
Open House
Our open house is scheduled for Monday, August 22, from 5-7 pm. Students will receive their class schedules, lockers (grades 7-9) and you will have the chance to meet your teachers. Students in grades 10-12 will be able to sign up for a locker if they want to have one. Grades 10 and 11 sign up with your SRB teacher, Grade 12 sign up in the office.
Dual Credit
The start of school is just around the corner and that means that students enrolled in dual credit classes will begin even sooner than that! As of now, if your student is taking a dual credit course through Lake Area Tech, the start date is August 17th, all other tech schools and Colleges start August 22nd. Since these dates are before the Lennox School Start date, we would like to offer students taking dual credit courses the opportunity to pick up their school laptop early so that they can log in to their courses and begin working when the course begins. School Laptops for Dual Credit enrolled students will be available August 15th-19th from 10-2 PM. If the tech office is not available, the Front Office staff should be able to help check out the laptop for your student
ACT Prep Class – Juniors and Seniors
Lennox High School is partnering with Sylvan Learning Center again to offer our ACT Prep class this year. The format and expectations of this Prep Class will be similar to last year. We will have an informational meeting on August 22nd at 7pm in the HS Cafeteria for Junior/Senior students and parents interested in learning more about this opportunity. See page 2 for more information. Preference will be given to students that did not participate last year.
Schedule Changes for HS Students
Please stop in the office if you need to make schedule changes. Mr. Allison will be available to make schedule changes on August 15-18 during office hours. All schedule changes for first semester must be completed by August 26.
Daily Attendance
Please be sure to call the JH-HS office if your student will be late, needs to leave early or will be gone for the entire day due to illness, appointments, etc. Darci Granum – Attendance Secretary – 647-2203 (ext. 5001)
