As you have probably seen if you’ve driven by LCHS in the last week or so, there has been a lot of activity lately. We have seen the arrival of many of the pods and the teams are working on getting them connected to each other and the utility lines. They have been doing a great job and a lot of progress is being made. We are still planning on having the modular high school ready to go for the start of the 2nd semester.
As I mentioned in my last blog, we do have several questions that we are working on answers for. One of those questions was parking and we have a plan for that. In order to accommodate the number of staff and student cars, we are planning on expanding the lot near the old track, the lot near the Alternative Education Center, and the upper student lot to hold more vehicles. We are also exploring the possibility of creating a new lot using part of the currently fenced off area behind the CTE wing. Based on our plan, we should have enough spaces for all of the cars we see on a daily basis. Of course, we will need to change some of the currently assigned spots, but we will make those changes happen as smoothly as possible.
I also wanted to let everyone know that report cards will be coming out on Friday, November 11th. Please be sure to ask your child to see his or her report card. We will also be having Parent Teacher Conferences on Wednesday, November 16th from 5:30 - 7:30. This is a great time to talk with your child's teachers about his/her progress during the first nine weeks. I hope to see everyone there.
As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I can be reached at 540-894-5436 or at smithte@lcps.k12.va.us.
