SCHOOL INFO
January 27, 2023
Dear L&G Families:
At this point in time we are three full weeks from February break - and that is truly hard to believe! Winter Activities are now half over, which of course is disappointing, but our students and staff are having a great time. As you may not know, L&G is one of the few middle/high schools in the state to still offer a program like this for our students and we are eternally grateful for the community support to continue this incredible experience.
One of our challenges these days (and frankly for the past few years) is the student use of vape devices in school, specifically in the bathrooms. This is concerning for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the medical impact of addiction for young people. If you want support for your teenager, please reach out to our SAP, Luis Vargas at lvargas@windhamcentral.org.
In February, all students will be taking the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) which happens every two years. Please read this letter to learn more about it, and if you have any questions, please contact our school nurse, Jorda Daigneault at jdaigneault@windhamcentral.org.
Also in February, we will be surveying all of our students using a tool called the Panorama survey. This is the same survey tool that was shared out to parents this fall. Please read the attached letter for more information.
Thanks and have a great weekend!
Bob Thibault
Principal
