AP/ ECE Night - March 6

2/25/2018

 
Dear Students and Parents;
March begins the course selection process for the 2018-19 school year.  Our goal at Lyme-Old Lyme High School is to work in partnership with our LOLHS families to assure every student is on the best academic path to support his/her future goals, in addition to balancing academics with extra-curricular and family commitments. 
On Tuesday March 6th, we will host the second annual Advanced Placement / Early College Experience (AP/ECE) information night.  After a brief introduction in the auditorium, students and parents will have an opportunity to visit up to four teachers of the AP/ECE courses to learn about the rigor and time commitments of these courses.  This program is designed to help students and parents make informed decisions as they make their 2018-19 course selections.

2/20/2018

 
Congratulations to Brynn McGlinchey for being selected as February's Rotary Student of the Month. Brynn was selected for her excellence, enthusiasm and perseverance in her studies of both Chinese and Spanish.  Her leadership skills are prevalent both in and out of the classroom and recognized by her teachers who praise her for her humility and altruism. Brynn plans to continue her studies in both languages and utilize them in her future.

You are a STAR! Eres una estrella!

2/13/2018

 
In order to contribute to the positive environment in school, members of the LOLHS Spanish Honor Society created a project called You are a star.  Students cut a star for each student in the school.  They separated the stars with four different colors (freshman, sophomore, junior and senior). On the front of the star, they wrote the name of the student. On the back, they wrote a compliment in Spanish from a friend, another student, a classmate or a teammate.  We believe that  every single student in LOLHS is a star in something.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR WILDCAT ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN GROUP:
You may have noticed some new containers around the building... outside the gym, science wing, and custodial office. There are three Trex containers placed around the building in which we can recycle:  grocery bags, newspaper sleeves, bread bags, ice bags, case overwrap, ziploc and other reclosable bags, dry cleaning bags  produce bags, bubble wrap, cereal bags...
Our school will be not only helping the environment, keeping our land and water a little bit cleaner, our fish and wildlife a little bit safer;  but will also be competing against other schools to collect the most film which will ultimately, by TREX, be turned into decking or outdoor furniture. If we win, we will get an outdoor bench.  So, PLEASE, bring in your plastics, and contribute to the cause.  We will be getting the word out there through all possible venues.    Many thanks on behalf of the Community Service Club. And please...
                                                  remember to be responsible: 
               rethink, react, reuse, repurpose, recycle, reinvent!!
