LHS Weekly Update
September 30, 2022
Anti Bullying Month #ChangeStartsWithUs
As a district, Lansing USD 469 will recognize Anti-Bullying Month by highlighting two events: 1. Anti-Bullying Awareness Week (Oct 3-Oct 7) and 2. Unity Day (Oct 19)
Multiple LHS clubs are responsible for activities next week that will assist in creating an anti-bullying environment. Also, these clubs have thoughtfully assigned a color to each day. We ask that students and staff show their support by wearing the daily color and participating in these activities.
- Monday: Blue (THS-Positive Post-it Notes at Lunch and Art Club-Interactive Butterfly Mural at Learning Stairs)
- Tuesday: Orange (KAYS-Switch it Up at Lunch)
- Wednesday: Tie-dye (Scholars Bowl-TRIVIA during CCR)
- Thursday: Pink (NEG-DICE R NICE at Lunch andRobotics’ PSA)
- Friday: Red (STUCO-final door judging and Puzzle Club-provide the sweet treat for the winners)
All Week: STUCO-Anti-Bullying Door Decorating Contest
LHS Site Council
The Lansing High School Site Council is an advisory group made up of teachers, parents and community leaders that meets each quarter to provide input on high school programs and outcomes.
Please email Alan Penrose (alan.penrose@usd469.net) if you would like to be part of our site council.
Our first meeting for the 2022-2023 school year will be at 5:30pm on October 6th in Pride Rock.
