LnHS Update - January 26th
Dear Lancaster High School Eagle Families
I want to express my sincere gratitude to the families of our current and soon-to-be Lancaster Eagles for their enthusiastic participation in our recent Back-to-School Night. It was truly heartening to see so many of you in attendance, and your engagement meant a great deal to us. The event provided us with a fantastic opportunity to showcase the various departments and programs that make up the fabric of our educational community. Your presence and interest contribute significantly to the vibrant spirit of our school. We are excited about the upcoming academic year and look forward to working together to create a positive and enriching experience for all our students.
For those of you who could not be with us for Back-to-School Night and to those who did not see the survey station and have not taken the survey, please see just below this message for an opportunity to give us your feedback. I humbly ask for a few minutes as we make direct plans based off this feedback.
Thank you for being an integral part of the Lancaster Eagles family and have a wonderful weekend!

Yearbook and Senior Pics
Hello Senior parents!
I have a few announcements for you from the Yearbook staff and two attachments. Please reach out directly to jgriffey@avhsd.org if you have any questions. The yearbook staff has already gotten some terrific photos and we have a lot of Media Academy students in the class this year, so I feel confident this will be the best LNHS yearbook yet.
1.) The Yearbook is officially on sale at $65 (plus tax)! The price is $75 and will go up to $85 in January, so be sure to lock in the lowest price of the year today! You can order through Jostens, from our student store or directly from Ms. Mendoza in accounting in-person or via telephone. You must order through Jostens if you want personalizations, icons or any other extras.
2.) Senior recognition ads are officially for sale as well through Jostens. I have attached instructions. The deadline for senior ad purchases has been extended, see below. Don't miss out on honoring your child's accomplishments!
Senior Recognition Ads
Attention parents and guardians of seniors: DEADLINE EXTENDED - 6 Pages Remaining
We have 6 remaining pages dedicated to Senior Recognition Ads, so the staff has re-opened ad purchasing at Jostens or CLICK HERE If you missed the deadline to purchase an ad, please check the attached instructions to honor your graduate! The new deadline is 1/31, and we will close the store once we get the pages full, so don't wait until the last minute!

At-School Live Tutoring
VIRTUAL *LIVE* Tutoring (Virtual Tutoring with a Live Person)
Did you know that your student has LIVE 24 HOUR FREE tutoring available in your student's PowerSchool? Our district has partnered with Princeton Review to provide every student with this amazing service. Your student can be connected with a tutor in any subject any time of the day, for FREE. These are not videos, they are live, vetted, tutors. Think of Uber, but for tutoring! The tutors will even edit papers for your student with less than a 24 hour turn-a-round period.
The easiest way to access this free, live, virtual tutoring, is to have your student log into google with their school account, log into Power School, look on the left side of the screen and find the live tutor button, and follow the easy to follow directions from there. If you need assistance, CLICK HERE or the button below for a tutorial.
