🚧 LBHS Parking Update for Monday

The South Parking Lot is closed for construction, so check out the map before coming to school Monday!

🚗 Students: park in the West Lot
🚌 Buses + drop-off/pick-up: West Lot
⛔ East Lot: District staff only
♿ Please keep the four ADA spaces closest to the building available
🚧 Stay out of all construction/closed areas and follow marked walking routes

Seniors: You’ll see a Senior Stall Area on the map. We’re hoping we can keep the senior stall-painting tradition going! Don’t paint yet—we’re going to see how parking works this first week, and Ms. Darwood will share next steps if we can make it work.

Give yourself a little extra time Monday while everyone gets used to the new setup. Thanks, Mountain Lions!

What a great first week! We reconnected with friends, made new ones, and learned a lot!
