MISCELLANEOUS 

Add/Drop Classes

Each year we spend many hours organizing the master schedule.  In the event of conflicts, closed classes, or classes not offered, we will use the alternate courses listed on your registration form to adjust your schedule. 

Student schedule changes may be requested through the first 5 days of the school year. After the first five days, student schedules can only be changed at the request of administration for special circumstances. Schedule changes are discouraged, and in many cases not possible, as staffing decisions are based on student schedule requests.

Changes in a student schedule can only be honored if it is educationally best for the student and there is room in the desired course. Examples of “acceptable” schedule changes include:

• Inappropriate course placement.

• Course prerequisites have not been met.

• Course has been taken and cannot be repeated for credit.

• Special circumstances as determined by an administrator.

If you have any questions about your student’s schedule or need to make a change, please complete the 2025-2026 Schedule Change Request Form. Please send all change requests via this form. Completion of this form helps us to streamline your requests instead of getting lost in our inboxes.  Thanks for your cooperation.

Backpacks

Students are encouraged to bring only necessary items to school/class.  Students may bring their backpacks to class with them. 

Extra Help

Students are encouraged to talk with their teacher about their assignments and get support if needed.  

Lockers

Locker assignments will be issued to all Middle School students for the School Year. High School students will be issued a locker upon request using this form. Students are expected to use only the locker assigned to them and keep them locked at all times. Hall lockers are “on loan” to students for the school year and remain the property of the school. The school reserves the right to inspect student lockers when building administrators, in their reasonable judgment, deem such action necessary to insure the safety and welfare of students and staff. It is the individual student's responsibility to keep the assigned locker clean and neat and the locker combination confidential at all times.  

Students are NOT to share lockers with other students. Students are advised not to keep money or other valuable items in their lockers. THE SCHOOL WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST OR STOLEN PROPERTY. 

Lost and Found

Lost books that are found will be returned to the department/library. Other items that are found may be claimed in the lost and found (outside of the South gym) or at the front desk. 

Unclaimed items will be turned over to charitable organizations at the end of each quarter.  

Non-School Items / Personal Property   

There is no reason to bring any articles to school or on the bus that do not pertain to a school activity.  Such articles may interfere with learning. These articles include, but are not limited to the following items: game systems, radios, roller blades, trading cards, toys, skateboards, laser pens, headsets, perfume, footballs, basketballs, or balls of any type. Such items may be confiscated and will be returned to the parent/guardian.  

If students bring cell phones, they must be kept in backpacks or turned in to their teacher.  Cell phones must be turned off or placed on silent, except in the cafeteria during the student’s lunch period. At no other time are students allowed to use cell phones during the school day.  

The school is not responsible for lost, broken or stolen items.

School-issued Materials

Students are expected to return school-issued materials at the conclusion of the class or when the item is due back.  Materials that are lost, stolen, or damaged must be paid for by the student/family.

Fundraisers

All fundraising efforts (by clubs, sports teams; for LILA-specific purposes, personal purposes, etc.) which are conducted at school must be pre-approved by the Building Principal, without exception. 

All funds raised through fundraisers must be spent for the purpose for which the money was collected or raised. Failure to follow this directive could result in the loss of funds collected or raised, the loss of items related to the fundraiser, and/or disciplinary action.

Many groups coordinate several fundraising activities throughout the year. All funds earned are used to enhance educational programs and provide funds for activities not available through the school district.  Participating in fundraisers is purely voluntary.
