🎓 ALUMNI, WE WANT YOU BACK AT LISA! 🎓

One of our favorite January traditions is bringing our LISA Academy alumni back to campus to share their experiences with our Juniors and Seniors!

Our alumni panel gives students the chance to hear directly from those who once sat in the same classrooms—about college, careers, challenges, opportunities, independence, and life after LISA. Your story and experience can help our students feel more prepared for what comes next. 💙

📅 January 6, 2027
📍 LISA North High — 10:00 AM

LISA alumni, sign up now to participate! Whether you're in college, working, serving, building a business, pursuing a trade, or still figuring out your next chapter—you have something valuable to share.

It's Faculty Friday! Faculty Friday is a time each week when we introduce and recognize our amazing LNMH staff!

✨ Today's spotlight: Emily Mendiola! ✨

🐾 Years at LISA: 2

❤ Favorite things: poke bowls, mango limonade, strawberry cheesecake bundt cake, Hershey's milk chocolate, and the color pink

🥰 Favorite thing about working at LNMH: "My favorite thing about working at LNMH is the faculty/staff community and working with the students. They are always on a positive note and always willing to work together."

🎹 Fun Fact: "Besides the Spanish language, I love Japanese and Korean. They are interesting! I also love music, especially when the piano, violin, or the cello are involved. I play the piano at my church!"
