Student Recognition & Congratulations:
Lions varsity baseball off to a good start! Junior pitcher Chris Jansky was great on Thursday, throwing a no-hitter in Lions' 3-0 victory over Denver North. No Denver North batter was able to locate Jansky's pitches during the game. Jansky threw a no-hitter, striking out 13 batters and walking one while recording his momentous feat. Lions stayed on top until the final out after taking the lead in the third, scoring one run on an error. Lions increased its lead with two runs in the fourth. A single by freshmen Dylan Nickless ignited the offense, plating senior Colton Barrett.
Lions Baseball is back in action this week.

We still have 70 Regal/United movie tickets that are available. They can be purchased for $10.00 each at the book keeper's office from 2:00pm-3:30pm after school for the next two weeks. Please remember to make the check out to LHS after prom and that this is a tax deductible donation. We could not have this fun event without you. Thanks again!
Last year we worked on beautifying the library… this year we’re working on the cafeteria…If you have any green silk plants you’d like to donate to LHS, the “Green Thumb” team will be tackling the cafeteria planters this spring. As you do your spring cleaning over the next few months, any greenery you don’t need any more can be used for our project. Bring to Therese in the main office, and we will put your “used” green silk plants to good use! Thanks in advance for helping with the cafeteria project. Questions? Email Wendy Burbage at wlb1963@msn.com.
