Make sure to check out the spirit board located in the lobby to see who is winning!

You can contribute to your class's spirit points by posting homecoming week-related pictures under your class hashtag. The hashtag for freshmen and 8th graders is #lhsmardigras22, sophomores is #lhsmardigras21 juniors #lhsmardigras20 and seniors #lhsmardigras19. To learn more about spirit points and your class hashtag, check for posters hung around the school!
