LAKE WORTH HIGH SCHOOL
Weekly Memo 8/29/2016
MISSION
We will lead all students to be productive citizens.
VISION
Lake Worth High School provides a customized learning experience that values individual growth and achievement.
I hope you had a great first week! I had the opportunity to speak with a number of students about their first week of school. They were very optimistic about their school year. When I asked them about their teachers, they responded with words like, "awesome, really good, and I love all of my teachers." Thanks so much for a great start to the school year!

- Leadership team will meet briefly after school on Wednesday at 4:15. If you have duty, you will be excused for that day.

We will take some time to review relevant policies and procedures as well as testing, and setting goals for the year. We will ask that you have students actually write down their goals at their advisory meeting when they receive progress reports.
