Good afternoon LHS parents.
I wanted to let you know about a t-shirt we are offering our students and anyone else that might be interested in purchasing. As some of you know, every Wednesday we have a Character development session with our students, and the program we use is Character Strong. I thought it would be cool if a lot of our kids got a Lathrop Mules Character Strong shirt and everyone wore them on Wednesdays. Anyway, if you would like to order a shirt for your student or anyone else, the link is below. The order deadline will be 11/15/24 at noon. Thanks, Mr. Bowers
