LHS Freshmen Night 2026
Today, we celebrated our 12-month and summer employees for all they do. They have spent the summer, like they do every year, maintaining our fleet and facilities and they helped wrap up the previous school year while preparing for the next. With only 5 weeks until the first day of the 26-27 school year, we couldn't be more thankful for all they have done this summer and throughout the whole year. We truly appreciate all of their hard work!

“While serving as an interventionist, Mrs. Classen continually takes on additional responsibilities that positively impact students, staff, and the overall school climate. Kris serves in multiple leadership roles throughout the building, including Building Union Representative, member of the Culture Committee, Behavior Team, Crisis Team, and 504 Coordinator. In each of these roles, she demonstrates professionalism, reliability, and a genuine commitment to supporting others. She consistently steps in wherever needed and approaches every challenge with a calm, solutions-focused mindset.
