Attention Seniors! Even though it's only early September of your Senior year, you need to be thinking about your life after Littleton...and Post Grad is all set up to help you...!  Beginning next Monday, September 10th, all Seniors will be scheduled to attend a mandatory “Life After Littleton" meeting in the Post Grad Center during 45 minutes of one of your OFF periods.  You will receive a note in class on the day prior to your meeting notifying you of the time you need to come to Post Grad the next day.  We will also place a reminder call to your home number.   Trained volunteers will walk you through a lot of really important, need-to-know information and steps you must take in order to apply to college or provide information about non-college options like a gap year and tech/trade school programs.  These meetings will take place only on Mondays and Fridays over the next 6 weeks.  If you have questions, please stop by Post Grad.  We'll be seeing you soon!

Thanks to everyone who helped support the Second Annual Back-to-School FUNraiser! The LHS Marching Band was there to greet guests, and the LHS POMS provided additional entertainment. The weather was perfect, and the poolside location was a nice way to end summer and celebrate the beginning of another school year. Best of all, we have raised more than half the goal of $10,000 for a completely new, and much needed, sound and presentation system for the LHS theater. Anyone still wanting to contribute can do so; all  donations are very much appreciated (attention LHS PTO FUNraiser). Thanks again to everyone who has helped support this much needed improvement for our school!
