Spectrum Hosts a Reverse Lavender Graduation

5/31/2020

 
Picture
On Friday evening, the Spectrum club hosted the first ever virtual Lavender Graduation ceremony. Each senior invited a faculty member to honor and celebrate who they felt were most supportive to them during their years of high school. Honorees included Mr. Wilson, Mrs. Lefevre, Mrs Ressler, Mr. Fisler, Mr. Eckhart, Ms. Macione, Mrs. Cox and Mrs. Duhamel.  Mrs. Burke received the Mary Beth Schreindorfer Award for the one teacher who they felt most exemplifies and fosters the qualities of diversity, inclusivity and empathy. It was an very special and emotional evening.

Thank you to Spectrum for their consistent efforts this year and for the very special evening to honor our faculty. It was truly an impressive evening.

​       Araselys Farrell Becomes Microsoft Word Certified
As part of the Microsoft Office Certification class, Araselys Farrell passed the Microsoft Word certification test! According to an article written by Cushing Anderson and John F. Gantz, “Holding a MOS certification can earn an entry-level business employee as much as $16,000 more in annual salary than uncertified peers.” Having a Microsoft certification on a resume definitely helps with obtaining a job or internship. Way to go Araselys!

   ​ WELL DONE WILDCATS!

LOLHS would like to RECOGNIZE AND CONGRATULATE 

​Emily M Speckhals

has been selected as a winner of the 
 Pfizer Inc Scholarship

 Pursuant to an Agreement with National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC), this Special Scholarship award is sponsored by Pfizer Inc.  
​Special Scholarships are underwritten by many of the business organizations that also provide Merit Scholarship® awards for students who qualify as Finalists in the National Merit® Scholarship Program.  These corporate sponsors wish to offer a fixed number of awards each year for students who meet their specified criteria—usually children of employees or residents of communities where the company has facilities.  In years when the number of such Finalists is less than the total number of scholarships a sponsor wishes to offer, the company or business supplements its National Merit Scholarships with Special Scholarships for other high performers in the National Merit Program.  Winners of Special Scholarships are chosen based on their academic accomplishments from a pool of candidates who fulfilled the sponsor's criteria and scored high on the 2018 PSAT/NMSQT®.
WELL DONE EMILY!

Shoreline Writing Contest - First Place Winner!

5/17/2020

 
LOLHS would like to recognize and congratulate
Connie Pan for receiving FIRST PLACE
 in Poetry at the Shoreline Writing Contest. 

WAY TO GO CONNIE!
Picture
​
​Salt Lipped

by Connie Pan
Lyme-Old Lyme High School
Jill Ressler
Poet Edwina Trentham's comments on Connie's Poem, Salt Lipped: 
this poem is full of images, some really lovely--"cornhusk dolls left by the swing set"'  "scapula moving under the skin" and "little fishes with streaming tails"  and the poet clearly has an understanding of what makes a good poem.
The writing contest is sponsored by the Shoreline Heads of English Departments.

I.
Do you ever cry
not an outpouring of longing or anger - but because
you feel
something welling up inside you like a flood in a mine, pushing the little humans
up and out, ragtag
cornhusk dolls left by the swing set in a hurry, in a corner of the playground the grownups couldn’t
see.
I mean this in the best of ways.

II.
Her back is to me and it’s golden like the rest of her, scapula
moving under the skin,
light-full as she walks into the water,
venus in retrograde.
Her face beckons, turned slightly towards me and I am pluto, ensnared
in an orbit
but ever so small and ever so far away.
Hair piled on top of her, nose crinkling in a half-laugh that I didn't deserve to see.
Is she
could she be
laughing for me?

​III.
I’m glad I'm alive, mostly.
At the best of times I feel so lucky to feel at all.
People of all sorts, cotton candy at the fair.
The smell of cinnamon from the next room wafting in and curling up on my lap.
I’m surrounded by lilac smiles
and peals of laughter when the sky goes black to grey.
At the worst of times I feel
like I never deserved to make it here, happy,
or like I’m not happy at all, I'm just faking,
or like I’m not faking at all, I’m just dead,
or like I'm not dead at all, but I could be,
under the boats at the marina - barnacles or little fish with streaming tails.
I want to deserve it.

Virtual Senior Projects!

5/17/2020

 
The final event for seniors is before graduating and after the stress of the AP exams, is to present their senior projects for our entire school community. This year, in the distance learning environment, students are presenting at home and recording their presentations. Presentations will be uploaded to their English class’s folder in the google-drive so their classmates can view and comment on their CANVAS Discussion Board. We will also be creating a folder so, if students want students or others who are not in their English class to view the presentation.
The slide show below shows all the creative work our seniors are doing. Take a look... it is fascinating!
