Seniors,
I hope you are having a relaxing start to you Spring Break. Below are your reminders/updates for the week.
1). It was a pleasure seeing you all on Wednesday evening. If you missed the meeting, the google slides presentation and the video is linked below.
LMHS Senior Parent Meeting: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1OA28QpjSMrjm2YsTsbr0RCp-zBUKKAeVC8lb9SX6lqI/edit#slide=id.p
2). We still have 69 students who did not purchase caps and gowns. We need you to understand; in order to walk you need to have the correct green gown, the 2025 tassel, and the 2025 medallion. When I checked today, Herff Jones still had the link available for our school. Order quickly, because I do not know when they will take it down. Tassels, gowns, and other stuff you may order will be shipped directly to you. The cap and gown will be brought to school by Herff Jones and be handed out on April 15th nd 16th.
3). Grad Bash tickets are no longer on sale. Those who bought tickets need to get permission forms turned in. Packets can be found outside my doors or linked below. Bring or email the permission form to me by 3/28. Once I have your form, you can stop by and choose your bus. PLEASE DO NOT INTERRUPT ME DURING CLASS TO TURN FORMS IN. Tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE and you cannot sell your ticket yourself. However, I do have a few students who want to go but missed the deadline to buy tickets. If you find that you are no longer able to go, let me know, and I can reach out to those on my list and see if they want to buy your ticket.

4); Each student will receive 10 FREE TICKETS to graduation. Additional tickets will be sold for $10 a piece; with a maximum of 10 extra per family. These will be available on revtrak starting Monday, May 17th. There is a finite amount of additional tickets; so if you need some, please do not wait to purchase.
Enjoy the rest of your week,
Katz
