Congratulations to LHS Business Management teacher, Laura Degnan, for earning this plaque from iCEV for helping her students earn Tier 2 Industry Certifications! We are proud of Mrs. Degnan for the work she does to prepare her students for life after high school!

There was some working being done in the visiting girls' locker room which triggered the fire alarm. The fire department quickly responded and gave us an all clear. Students have returned and classes have resumed.

Parents:
Loudon High School students received Semester 1 report cards this morning. Please check the grades with your student. As a remider, we are on a block schedule so the semester 1 classes are over and those grades are final. We wish students well in their new spring classes.
Redskin Families,
As we approach final exams, We want to make sure you understand the Blue Early Release Form that you either have signed, or will sign in the next day or so. On Friday and Monday, we take finals. 1st and 2nd period finals are from 8:15 to 11:00 on Friday, 12/15, and 5th and 6th period finals are from 8:15 to 11:00 on Monday, 12/18. By signing the form, we assume that you know your child will be able to check out when his or her exams are done for the day. If you DO NOT want them to check out, please let your child know. Once students check out they must leave campus for the day. They will not be allowed to hang out on campus. If you would like them to stay on their regular schedule they certainly can. A select few will be forced to stay if their teacher has told them they will be making up work and missing assignments. Please call us if there is any confusion. We want to make sure you are fully aware of the location of your child at all times. On final exam days, this can sometimes be confusing. Have a great day!!!
Good Friday morning, LHS Families. This morning we had someone report the smell of gas in a classroom. As a precaution, reported it to all of the appropriate people. After response by Loudon Fire, Loudon Police, Loudon County Maintenance, Loudon County Sheriffs Department, Priority Ambulance Service, and Loudon Utilities, it was determined that there is no gas leak and we are all clear. Everything is back to normal and we are going to have a fantastic Friday. We hope you do as well.
Tonight before the Kingston v. Loudon basketball game at Loudon High School, a sprinkler head was hit in the locker room causing the fire alarm to go off. Loudon Fire Department and County Maintenance was able to turn off the water and dry out the locker room. Everything has been cleared to proceed as normal. The basketball game has resumed and school will continue as normal tomorrow. Good luck on English I and II End of Course Testing!
