From the Counselor's Office...
- Now that class schedules are no longer changing, it's time to ensure there are good routines established. Good time management allows you to have more free time, and less stress. You also feel more in control of your life. Some simple ways to assist with time management are: be organized, make "to do" lists, and use a weekly schedule.
- Please be checking HAC weekly and contacting teachers via email to keep up with any missing assignments.
- Tuesday, Sept. 25th is the Club Fair in the Auxiliary Gym. Come in anytime during One Lunch and see what clubs you would like to join! Clubs are a great way to find others who share your same interests. Daily tutoring is also available if your student is struggling in any area. Club and tutoring opportunities are posted on the LHS website, under ONE LUNCH.
