LION ROAR
Dear Lions,
With the Veteran's day holiday this week, we missed one day of classes and had many absences on Friday. This means there will be some catching up to do next week. We have four weeks until the end of the semester. It is time to finish strong. It's important to know what the rest of the work looks like in each of your classes so that you are prepared.
The rosters for the soccer teams were determined this week, after three days of tryouts. I am proud of all the athletes that tried out and look forward to seeing both teams in action. Basketball tryouts begin tonight.
We will have a meeting for our families of 11th or 12th grade students who are enrolled in Edgenuity. We will be able to answer any questions that you have about the program so that we can support 11th graders to excel in their English classes, English 11 or AP Language. The meeting will be on zoom at 6pm.
Senior portraits will be taken at JP Impressions studio on 1st Street. The cost will be $25 for the formal outfit with an additional $5 for any other added outfits (ie. caps/gowns, athletic uniforms, etc.) We will help schedule times December 1-10th from 12-6:00pm for students beginning next week.
Seniors- you are two weeks away to the application deadline for UCs and CSUs. If you need support, please ask your advisor, Mr. Martinez or Mr. Oronia. Mr. Oronia will also be at LVLA on November 23rd, during the week off to help students.
In community,
Ms. Silb
