The Youth Health Council will be meeting on Thursday, February 6th during 5th block in Room 3. Students need to check in with their 5th block teacher prior to attending the meeting. Any student who is interested in attending the TN Strong Youth Summit this summer in July in Chattanooga should attend the meeting. This free trip is open to all students regardless of whether or not you are in the Youth Council. See Ms. Lisa Coffman in Room 10 for trip details.
The best part of the Tireless Teacher Award is the feedback that we get from the student body that we are able to share with our teachers. Reading through them, its obvious that LHS teachers truly love their students and are passionate about their calling in life! Of the hundreds submitted, here are just a few that stand out.

Due to a significant number of students and staff being affected by illness, the Henderson County School District will be closed beginning Wednesday, January 29, Thursday, January 30, and Friday, January 31, to help combat the ongoing health concerns. School will resume on Monday, February 3. Again, this will begin tomorrow morning. All scheduled events for this afternoon and tonight, Tuesday, January 28th, will proceed as scheduled.
We understand how disruptive this is, but with such a large number of absences, it’s necessary to prioritize the health and safety of our students and staff. We encourage everyone to rest, recover, and take the necessary health precautions during this time.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Members of the LHS Youth Health Council led students in conducting a Red Sand ceremony to recognize the growing problem of human/sex trafficking around the globe. Students filled sidewalk cracks with red sand to represent the victims who are "falling through the cracks" in our society. The project was done in coordination with the Henderson County Health Department. Sponsors for the club are Lisa Coffman and Amber Staten, public health educator.
Thank you to Sports Plus for taking care of our athletes and the extra effort to get LHS a red Sports Plus banner for our gym.

We want to take a moment to brag on these nine students that passed the SDC American History test. Out of the entire state of Tennessee, only 72 students passed. LHS had nine students to pass so we feel like their teachers, Coach Bowman and Mrs. DeWald, deserve a shout-out as well!
Congratulations to Kayla Brown, William Dawes, Niyah Hughes, Alonso Limon, Harold Rivera, Maddox Diffee, Taylor Franklin, Caleb Williams, and JP Shearer.
Ken Gluck from the Tennessee Holocaust Commission visited Coach Bowman’s World History class. Mr. Gluck told the class about his father, aunts, and uncle's story about surviving the Auschwitz Death Camp during the Holocaust. Mr Gluck stressed the importance of ending hate amongst all people groups so we can help prevent future genocides or acts of violence.
Congratulations to Hayden Gorski for this prestigious honor.
