Bacon Academy hosted a volleyball tournament that featured a total of 6 teams, all of which were announced to a sea of fans during their very own Welcoming Ceremony.

The TechnoTicks go to Nationals!

4/21/2019

 
By Sadie Frankel, Robotics team member 
The weekend of April 6th, the Lyme-Old-Lyme-East Lyme robotics team (aka: the TecHnoTicks) went to the New England District Hartford event to compete with our 2019 robot. The game this year is Destination: Deep Space and is played with hatch panels and cargo that teams must maneuver in order to score points (see video above).
​Hartford was a 2-day event, with qualifying matches all day Saturday and Sunday morning and finals Sunday afternoon. Team 236, The TechnoTicks did well in the qualifying matches, ending 18th out of 39. Sunday afternoon, we got picked by 7th alliance captain, 3555 The Alluminati. We beat alliance 2 in our quarterfinals and alliance 6 in semifinals, bringing us to finals with our alliance. We lost in the finals to alliance 1 but put up a strong fight, getting us silver medals.

On April 24th, our team makes its way to Nationals in Detroit where we will be competing against and with some of the best robotics teams in the country. Team 236, The TechnoTicks are excited to represent the towns of Lyme, Old Lyme, and East Lyme in Detroit.

Congratulations TechnoTicks for all your hard work... and GOOD LUCK on your continued journey to nationals!

Day of Silence - April 12

4/8/2019

 
Picture
Support a Voice for All! This Friday, April 12th, Spectrum is encouraging all students to participate in Day of Silence. This day, held annually since 1996, was established by GLSEN to spread awareness about the silencing and erasure of LGBT+ students. LOLHS students can participate by electing to wear either a red or white ribbon on Friday, which they may obtain from Spectrum’s table in the commons the morning of. By wearing the red ribbon, students assume a vow of silence for the day to stand in solidarity with those who do not have a voice. Wearing a white ribbon allows students to show support without the commitment to silence for the day. Spectrum organizes the Day of Silence event at LOLHS every year and hopes to see a lot of participation this Friday!”

A Thank You from Boosters

Science Olympiad Team Takes 2nd!

4/7/2019

 
The Lyme Old Lyme High School Science Olympiad team took an impressive second place at the State of Connecticut competition held at the University of Connecticut on March 30.
 
In addition to taking the team trophy, the LOL Olympians earned individual medals in 14 events including Anatomy and Physiology, Designer Genes, Disease Detectives, Dynamic Planet, Forensics, Fossils, Geologic Mapping, Herpetology, Sounds of Music, Water Quality, Wright Stuff, and Write it – Do it.
 
Team members include:  Audrey Berry **, Gary Bocian**, Emma Danes*, Nick Fava*, Kylie Hall**, Isabella Hine*, Regan Kaye**, Rachael Larson**, Joshua Liefeld, Brynn McGlinchey**, Ryan McTigue**, Emily O’Brien**, Samantha Olson **, Connie Pan**, Nic Roth**
             * Indicates State of CT Competition Individual Medal Winner
                   * Indicates volunteer coach for LOLMS Science Olympiad Team
 

Science Olympiad involves mastery of test, lab, and building concepts in an array of 23 Stem events that change every year.  This has been an impressive journey for the students, many of whom have been competing since 6th grade as part of the award winning LOL Middle School Science Olympiad team.   Building on their skills, these avid Olympians worked tirelessly to start a team at the high school level – a team that has been in existence only three years.  In a field of nearly 50 teams, they debuted in 30th place in 2017, 7th place in 2018 and a phenomenal 2nd place this year. 
 
Thank you to our volunteer community and parent coaches who supported head Coaches Kylie Hall and Shannon Glorioso.  With new events being added each year and growing interest and momentum, we are always in need of volunteers to work with these dedicated students. 

Please contact Shannon Glorioso [email protected] if you would like to become involved.
 
Congratulations to the entire team for your amazing                               efforts and performance!
