CPR training videos are being sent out in our high school Health Google Classroom. Please watch daily to keep up with them. CPR is a graduation requirement.
The Marion Co Junior High Tournament will be live streamed due to the limitations on spectators. The live stream will take place on the Marion Co. School YouTube channel “MCR-II Mustangs”!!
Parents/Guardians: Reminder that LCC1 will remain in Distance Learning mode for at least the next week! HEADS UP though: With 87 active known cases in our county, double-digit increases in new cases almost every day last week, & news almost daily of another 1-2 staff members out sick, tested positive, or quarantined due to household positives, we will have to see what this week holds as to whether we can return to school on November 16th or not.
