WELCOME BACK LAKE FENTON!
LFHS August 2021
WELCOME BACK BLUE DEVILS!
Hello Lake Fenton Families,
It is a beautiful day as I type this and it is my sincere hope that you are enjoying these last summer days. We are weeks away from the hustle and bustle of another school year and I think we are all ready to make it a great one!
As we reflect on the past year, we have an opportunity to take the positive strides we've made and build upon them this school year: by continuing to focus on our health and wellness, increasing academic engagement, and investing in relationships. These are key ingredients to making for an incredible school year ahead. But I am also excited to add back in the fun and festivities that we all look forward to here at Lake Fenton High School.
I am once again, honored and humbled to have the opportunity to serve as your principal. Let's aim to make this the best year yet Blue Devils!
Proud Principal,
Kate VanHouten Ed. S
High School Principal
