Today is an ODD Period Day – Periods 1.3.5.7

Special Homecoming Events:

LAST CHANCE to pick up class t-shirts before the pep assembly is this morning from 7am-8:30 from the concession stand!  They will also be available at lunches today in case you can’t make the morning--that way you will have your shirt for the Spirit Fridays the rest of the year!

TODAY is the BEST day of Homecoming week!!  We have the pep assembly this morning, so be ready to have some loud spirit.  At 2:45 head down to the south gym to see the Dodge Ball tournament between the classes!  Then at 6pm in the stadium parking lot there is a tailgater BBQ for you to get some dinner before heading to the Football game and cheering on our lions to victory over the Stanley Lake Gators!!  The tailgater is only $3 all you can eat for upper classmen and FREE for freshmen. Have fun and GO LIONS Footbal!

Tomorrow’s Spirit Dress is Caesar Salad Day - wear your best toga or laurel wreath!  After school the Homecoming Boys Volleyball tournament will take place in the North gym.

Don’t forget the Dance is a formal affair--we would like you to look your best, so please: no denim, no short, short skirts, obey the 5 B's of dress code and please no hats (unless the hat is part of the theme).  There will be a coat check but you cannot go back to pick up items until the end of the evening.  You cannot put your shoes in with coat check items.  Finally, the ticket prices are the same at the door as they are pre-bought; but save yourself waiting in line and buy your tickets ahead of time--make sure you have your student ID too! See you there!

Guest Forms for Homecoming Dance are available in Student Services and Main Office.  They are due TODAY.

Students: do you have an Instagram?! do you want to be in the yearbook?! if so, hashtag"#lhspickme" with fun pictures you take during homecoming.
