Parking Reminders
While parking on campus can be challenging we thank you in advance for following LHS parking guidelines. When parking errors occur it can be frustrating for the individuals impacted by the error and time consuming for staff to resolve parking issues.
Unfortunately, there is no ON CAMPUS or LDS PARKING for 10th and/or 11th graders this year. All parking permits were issued to seniors through an application process. Juniors - keep an eye out for the 2023-24 parking application, that will come out in the spring.
No Parking Permit?
If you drive to school and you do not have a permit, you must park on the street in front of LHS, in the neighborhood--staying away from mailboxes and driveways or park at Hazelia and walk to campus or else you risk a $30 (minimum) ticket being assigned to your LHS student account.

Learn what skills, degrees, training, etc. are needed for this career

News From the Counseling Department
Second Semester Schedules (All Students): Please take a look at your 2nd semester schedule on StudentVue, and if you see an error, a missing class, or anything else that needs to be changed or taken care of, please come in and see your counselor as soon as possible to get that taken care of.
Senior Reminders: Please check that the following Graduation Requirements have been completed and if not, get them done as SOON as possible.
1. CRLEs (Career Related Learning Experiences): TWO, five-hour work experiences (paid or volunteer) documented on our CRLE forms and signed by a supervisor (forms are on Google Classroom or available in the Counseling Office. These should be turned in to the Counseling Office when completed. About 100 of you still need to finish this requirement. If you still need to complete hours, we do have spots available to work in our Student Store. See your counselor for more information.
2. Extended Application: The state of Oregon extended application requirement is the completion of the Career Interest Profiler on Naviance. Fifty of you seniors have NOT completed this. Please take that survey as soon as possible.
3. Check Credits and Complete PE Proficiency Forms: On Student Vue, under "Course History", view your transcript and check to see if you have any credits that still need to be completed that you are not signed up for currently. If you need to add a class, complete a PE Proficiency form for PE credit, etc. see your counselor immediately.
4. Complete College Apps: Finish up those college applications, request transcripts via Naviance, and request letters of rec (Directions on Google Classroom) if needed.
**CRLE and Extended Application will show as "PASSED" on your transcript if completed. That is an easy way to check if they are done as well.
Four Year Plans for 9th Graders: Four year plans were assigned via Google Classroom two weeks ago, and due last Monday, Nov 21st. Some of you still have not completed and submitted this document. This is a graduation requirement from the State of Oregon, and also is just good practice for looking at class options, planning ahead, and thinking about course pathways, electives, how to get all the required credits done, etc. The Class of 2026 Google Classroom also has all the resources needed to create four year plans. Please make sure they fill this out completely, and please come talk to your counselor if you or your parents have any questions.
