Highlights - Parent Newsletter


Lake Forest High School Communication Department utilizes several communication methods to help LFHS families and the community stay informed. These include this website, the parent E-newsletter “HIGHLIGHTS," press releases to various newspaper/magazine publications, and an Instant Alert telephone system.

The Lake Forest High School newsletter “HIGHLIGHTS” reflects an effort to provide LFHS families with monthly information that is timely and informative about LFHS regarding
Board of Education, Class News, Department News (Athletics/Academics/Community Education/Student Services (Academic Advising, Testing, College Recourses, Student Clubs, Service-Volunteer opportunities)/Parent Opportunities/Performances.
An
E-Highlights email is sent to subscribers at the beginning of each month
(subscribe to E-News!).  Weekly E-News updates are also sent. Information found in the newsletter will also be posted on this website and when appropriate, will be included in press releases.  Postings to www.lfhs.org reflect the same news that is acceptable for the HIGHLIGHTS newsletter.

While we recognize that there are many worthwhile opportunities for the community at large that may involve or be of interest to the high school community, we are not able to acknowledge requests for publicity that do not relate directly to a school event and/or student involvement.

Individuals/Organizations who have publicity requests of this type should feel free to contact local newspaper/magazine publishers including but not limited to:

Pioneer Press/Lake Forester  http://www.pioneerlocal.com/lakeforest/index.html
Tribune Local  http://www.triblocal.com/

For all the latest team accomplishments and photos of your favorite scout team, please visit “Athletics.” Here you can select your favorite team to see information regarding coaches, pictures, recent news, rosters, schedules, scores and more! As much as we would like to acknowledge all of our teams and athletes, the main purpose of the Highlights newsletter is to provide families with monthly information that is timely and informative about what is going on at the high school. From time to time, we will include pictures (if space allows) of your favorite team shot.

As always, when information is submitted to Communications (jmurawski@lfschools.net or awhipple@lfschools.net), it will appear in parent E-Highlights newsletters, it will be submitted to the Lake Forester either as a feature article or under “School Digest,” posted at “Triblocal.com,” and it will be posted on the Lake Forest High School website, www.lfhs.org. Please check the website daily as it is kept updated as new information is received.
